 Hey everybody, this is Chris Welsh with The Verge and we're taking a look at the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. It seems like every year we check out Xiaomi's latest phones because they kind of set the bar for price versus form and design. This phone is about $200 US and for that money you get a metal body which feels fantastic. So it's got a great design, metal sides. The top and bottom are plastic for the antenna so you can get good signal. But aside from that, I mean, it's got a fingerprint sensor on back. All the things you'd expect from phones in 2016 and for a really, really cheap price. So this phone has a massive 4050 mAh battery inside. That's bigger than the Nexus 6P, bigger than the Note 5, bigger than the S7 Edge. So it's a positively huge battery. It should last and last. So up front is a 1080p display. It's 5.5 inches so it's not super sharp. It's not quad HD. It's not QHD. So it's not as sharp as say a Note 5 or a S7 Edge but it's still plenty bright and it's pretty sharp. So inside is a Snapdragon 650 processor. It's not top of the line but it is very fast, very fluid. There's no app drawer because Xiaomi's theme is kind of strange. It's kind of iPhone-like in that regard. So it's a bit different but everything is really fast and fluid and super responsive. It's Snapdragon's mid-range processor but it feels very fast on the ear. And so as for the camera, it's a 16 megapixel sensor which is pretty good and it'll focus in.1 seconds. That's what Xiaomi says anyway. It's got phase-detect autofocus so that also helps with the speed and focus accuracy as well. So it's a pretty decent camera. It's not going to compare to a Galaxy Note 5 or S7 Edge or any of LG's latest phones. And it's $200 so that's how much you would pay on contract for an iPhone or something else of that name. There are phones in the US that are near that price point. There's the Moto G and things like that. But I mean the build quality here is kind of on a different level. That's what Xiaomi is really trying to push. They're trying to raise the bar as far as what you pay and what you get in return. And we can't really think of any other phones for this price point that really hit that bar like this one does. You still can't buy it in the US but the hope is eventually maybe you will be able to.
