Xiaomi launched the Redmi 2 Prime amid much fanfare, the first "Made in India" smartphone by the company. Its an upgrade of the previous-gen Redmi 2 with double the memory and storage at 2GB RAM, 16GB storage. The Redmi 2 Prime still performs well, offers one of the better rear cameras in this price bracket with a good display. Sadly the Redmi 2 still runs on Android KitKat and there is no update to Android Lollipop in the foreseeable future.
