The Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro, both of which were launched in India in February this year, have been successful in winning the hearts of consumers in India. In just four months since their launch, Xiaomi has sold over 5 million units of the two smartphones combined. This also means that the Redmi Note 5 series is the fastest selling phone series in India to have crossed the 5 million sales milestone. What makes this achievement even more impressive is that the two smartphones aren’t on open sale in India yet. However, Xiaomi has been working hard to ensure that it can meet the enormous demand for the Redmi Note 5 series smartphones in the country.

Last year, Redmi Note 4 was the best selling phone in India having sold ~10 million units within one year of launch and 5 Million units in 1st 6 months.
