It is powered by Qualcomm’s octa-core Snapdragon 616 processor with four cores clocked 1.5Ghz and the other 4 clocked at 1.2GHz.

It also  features an all-metal body with a textured rear panel and is available in Gold, Grey, and Silver colour variants. The price of the Redmi 3 in China is CNY 699, which is about Rs. 7,100.
