Redmi Note - Is It The New Budget King?

With every new launch, the Redmi Note range has raised the benchmark. Note 7S is no different. It has the same design language as that of the elder sibling - Redmi Note 7 Pro, innards of the younger and soon to be discontinued Redmi Note 7, and an all-new 48-MP rear camera. Is it the new budget king?

Design & Gestures: Xiaomi has embraced an all-glass body in bright colours with its Redmi 7 series. The Note 7S continues the legacy. With a dot notch at the top and a thick chin at the bottom, the 6.3-inch full HD+ screen dominates the front.

The rear, made of glass, houses a vertical dual camera setup. SIM tray is on the left along with Type-C charging port and speaker grill at the bottom. Priced at 10,999, the phone looks good but I had to regularly clean the device as it attracted finger impressions. Also, the soft finish makes it slippery.
