MIUI 5 on Android 4.3



(Xiaomi Mi3’s competitive price and awesome spec’s are surely going to challenge existing budget phones like Moto G and Moto E. Looking at its spec’s, we can even say, it’s a tough competition to high end smartphones like Moto X, Nexus 5 etc..)

Note:
Xiaomi phones don’t come with the Play Store and Google apps in China, but they’re said to support them in India.

Specs and Price: Moto E

Motorola has done it again. It will most certainly(hoped to) replace the basic handset/cellphone market in India with the entry of its low cost mobile phone Moto E. Few moths back Moto G performed well in terms of sales in India, and I hoping Moto E will leverage the good will acquired by its predecessor Moto G.
