Very modest configuration for a device of this level, and even from such an eminent manufacturer, this smartphone. It includes:
The device itself with fixed in it fixedbattery. The very case of the device is not foldable. The only element that can be removed and reinstalled is the slot for an external storage device or cards for cellular operators.

In the first case, only Chinese is installed, and the owners of such devices have to install an international version of the system software in the similar Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (32Gb).

It changes the interface and greatly simplifies the process of working on the gadget.
There are almost no flaws in this cell phone model. Most often the owners point out the following disadvantages:
Hybrid second slot for a sim card.But after all, 32 GB of integrated, built-in memory in any case will be enough for both storing personal information and installing additional application software.

If a mobile device breaks down or is stolen, this will avoid its possible loss.
Weak equipment on the device Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (32Gb). Case, protective film and stereo headset are not included in it, and they will have to be bought separately.

But it’s still better not to save money in this case and take a ready-made device with an already international firmware than later try to install the same software version on this gadget. As experience shows, it’s not so easy to replace Chinese software with international one. If such an operation is performed incorrectly, such a device can be completely destroyed. And the smartphone itself, as noted earlier, is not so cheap, so it is recommended to experiment only as a last resort. Moreover, it is not so difficult to get the version of the gadget on the domestic counter with the international version of the OS. Well, the difference in price between Chinese and domestic stores is not so significant.

Repeatedly, users pointed to the convenience of such a constructive solution. That is why the Chinese engineers decided, apparently, to position the sensor window in this way. Another "feature" of this cell phone is a metal case. It is not collapsible, but the quality of its assembly really does not cause any complaints. Such a body is resistant to damage and will last for a very, very long time. The only disadvantage of this approach is the inconvenience of repair. But after all, when buying a new phone, the potential owner is the last thing to think about. Yes, and the quality of products from this Chinese company is excellent, and problems with the operation of the equipment, as a rule, does not arise.
