Xiaomi's new sub-brand, Redmi, has launched its first phone: The Redmi Note 7.
As expected, Xiaomi has once again pushed the boundaries of just how much phone you can get for your money. The Redmi Note 7 has a 48-megapixel rear camera, all-around decent specs, and starts at just 999 CNY or $147.

It's powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 and starts with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. It's got a 48-megapixel rear camera, coupled with a 5-megapixel depth sensor, as well as a 13-megapixel selfie camera.

The phone is launching in China first, starting at 999 CNY ($147) for the 3GB/32GB model. The variant with 4GB/64GB costs 1,199 CNY ($177), while the 6GB/64GB costs 1,399 CNY ($206). Depending on the variant you choose, the phone is available in four colors: Blue, red, black and a purplish "twilight" gradient.

But those phones are far more expensive, with starting price tags of $493 and $436, respectively. With a mid-range processor and lack of some fancy options such as the in-display fingerprint sensor, the Redmi Note 7 makes some compromises in terms of specs, but its price -- for either variant -- still sounds like an absolute steal.
