Redmi phones use Xiaomi's MIUI user interface on top of Android. Models are divided into the entry-level Redmi, the mid-range Redmi Note, and the high-end Redmi K. In 2022, a lower-priced entry-level lineup, Redmi A was introduced, featuring Android Go and lacking MIUI user interface.
The most significant difference from other Xiaomi smartphones is that Redmi uses less expensive components, allowing lower prices while retaining more advanced specifications. In August 2014, The Wall Street Journal reported that in the second quarter of the 2014 fiscal year, Xiaomi had a smartphone market share of 14% in China;[2] Redmi sales were attributed as a contributing factor toward this ranking.[2]
