Xiaomi Redmi 4A to Go on Sale in India Today, Exclusively for Amazon Prime Subscribers
As tradition goes, the Xiaomi Redmi 4A smartphone will go on sale in India on Thursday, via exclusive online retail partner Amazon India.

On Thursday, the Xiaomi Redmi 4A (Review) will go on sale via Amazon India between 3pm and 4pm IST - and as we mentioned, it will only be available to Amazon Prime members. The company notes that users in their free trial will still be eligible to buy the smartphone - users can also sign up now and become eligible for the sale later on Thursday.
