By Prarthito

Xiaomi has been living a dream, as far as the Indian handset market is taken into consideration. The company has garnered so much popularity in so little time that it's actually a bit scary. But then again, the company has been able to win over the minds and hearts of the users.

 

If you are still wondering on the specs of the handset, the Mi 3 sports a 5-inch IPS display offering a full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) and 441ppi pixel density with Corning Gorilla glass protection.

It is powered by a 2.3 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 (MSM 8974AB) processor coupled with 2GB DDR3 RAM and it runs a custom interface dubbed MIUI that is a very different take on Android.

Other specs include: 13MP rear camera with LED Flash, Sony Exmor BSI sensor, f/2.2 aperture, 1080p full HD video recording, 2MP front-facing camera, 16 GB internal memory, 3G, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n (2.4/5 GHz), WiFi Direct, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, and NFC and will draw its energy from a 3050mAh battery.
