          This is seriously lekker news. Competition is great and i'm sure it will price itself extremely well against the well known competition.

                        I'm in Kenya, and that's great news. Kudos Xiaomi!

                          Why no Egypt?!
                          Egypt is a 70 million Mobile Phone user, and when Huawei entered the Egyptian market
                          it did great things.
                          Currently No.1.

                                        The Xiaomi redmi note 2 is awesome in performance and the look enhance with premium casing will fool any one into thinking it's an iPhone 5s or 6. Just hope they will keep the price around the same range with mainland China if not techno and Infinix will dominate the mid range price market.
