The new smartphones will be exclusively available on Flipkart in the country, apart from Mi.com and the Mi Home retail stores.

The Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro would be available in India at a starting price of 156 U.S. dollars (INR 9,999) and 218 U.S. dollars (INR13,999) respectively.

"Right now, the focus is still on phones, few other smaller categories like Mi band, power banks, Mi Routers. And of course a new category that we have added is Mi TV. So let's first build our Mi TV business and then we'll think of launching more categories," Manu Kumar Jain, Managing Director Xiaomi India said.
