'The Redmi Note 2 isn't a perfect phone by any means, but it's powerful, reasonably good-looking, has great screen and a fantastic camera - as well as other bonuses such as a MicroSD slot and two SIM slots. '
'Good battery life.'
'When connected to an active external amplifier, the smartphone showed excellently high volume levels and perfectly clean output for one of the best showings out there. . '
'The poor camera performance is a massive letdown, and overall Micromax seems to have focused far too much on being able to shove 4GB of RAM into a midrange phone. '
'It’s easily the most impressive phone available under $300, and it doesn’t force you to make the compromises that are commonly required by cheap phones. '
'Mesmerizing IPS-based display'
'While the software and audio hardware are great, the Idol 3 is not a smartphone you’ll pick for its visual design. '
