Xiaomi has announced a temporary price cut for a trio of Redmi smartphones and the phones will be available at the discounted prices between February 6, 2019 and February 8, 2019. Following the price reduction, the Redmi 6A, Redmi 6, and the Redmi 6 Pro can be purchased at discounts ranging from Rs. 500 to Rs. 2,000 for certain variants on their original launch price. The Redmi 6 series smartphones are now available at reduced prices from the official Xiaomi e-store, Amazon.in and Flipkart.

The Chinese smartphone maker announced the limited time price cut on the Redmi 6A, Redmi 6 and the Redmi 6 Pro via a tweet from the official Redmi India Twitter account, and also took a dig at Samsung's freshly launched Galaxy M-series smartphones by asking millennial smartphone users to choose wisely. However, the company has not disclosed the platform-specific offers such as banking discounts, EMI offers, exchange plans, etc. for the three phones.
