Alongside the news of the launch was the announcement that buyers of the Redmi Note 4 can also expect a Android Nougat-based version of MIUI soon, with a release preview already available for those who can"t wait any longer.
Those looking to pick up the Redmi Note 4 for themselves will have to wait a little longer, as the next flash sale is expected to take place on January 30, with expectations of a similar success.
