Are you guys looking for a budget but powerful phone? Seems impossible right? Meet the new era of budget Phone killer - Redmi 4. There's no way you gonna missed this phone. It's been the bang-for-buck benchmark for a while now, delivering a feature set and performance way above what its price tag suggests.
Let's recap our memory, first Redmi 4 powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 had launched last year November, together with Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 Driven Redmi 4 Prime which you call as 'Smaller version of Redmi note 4 Qualcomm'. In May 2017, Redmi 4 India Version which also known as Redmi 4X has launch in India which is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 435.

There are three variants of Redmi 4 available in the Market: Redmi 4 China, Redmi 4 India and Redmi 4 Prime. However, many users are confused about their device variants and flashed wrong rom which will cause their beloved phone bricked. So I m gonna teach you guys how to identify the variants of Redmi 4 variants.
Here's the methods you can check your phone variants.
METHOD 1. You can check the Model number behind the phone box.
(Redmi 4 China Model number)
(Redmi 4 Prime model number)
(Redmi 4 India model number)
NOTE: If you bought the phone from third party reseller, I STRONGLY recommend you don't open the phone box first, check the model number incase the reseller sold the phone variants that doesn't match the phone variants you wanted, so you could return to the reseller.
METHOD 2. You can check the code of the ROM you are using in the 'About Phone' page (Stable ROM User only)
Example Photo:
(Redmi 4 Prime)
Ever wonder what does the code means? - M= Marshmallow
- CE= Redmi 4 China Version
- CN= China Version
- DI= Code for the update
MAMMIEA- M=Marshmallow
- AM=Redmi 4 India Version
- MI=Global build
- EA= Code for the update
MBEMIDL - M=Marshmallow
- BE=Redmi 4 Prime
- MI=Global build
- DL=Code for the update
TIPS for Fastboot and Recovery flash: If you want to flash official rom but don't know which ROM to download? Here's the tips:
You can check the code name in downloaded fastboot and recovery rom.Example: Recovery -----HM4_V8.1.5.0.MCECNDI_7379d10c7b_6.0.zip Fastboot-----prada_images_V8.1.4.0.MCECNDI......... _6.0_cn_c7398e9d33.tgz
Recovery -----HM4XGlobal_V8.2.9.0.MAMMIEA_4dc698e10b_6.0.zip Fastboot------santoni_global_images_V8.2.9.0.MAMMIEA.......... _6.0_global_32f531d3cc.tgz Recovery-----HM4ProGlobal_V8.2.4.0.MBEMIDL_454a067758_6.0.zip Fastboot------markw_global_images_V8.2.4.0.MBEMIDL.......... _6.0_global_247b750df3.tgz
METHOD 3. You can check the CPU of the you are using in the 'About Phone' page (only differentiate Redmi 4 Prime from Redmi 4 India and China as both of them has same clock speed)
(Redmi 4 China and Redmi 4 India CPU)
(Redmi 4 Prime CPU)
METHOD 4. The location of the camera and led flash at the back of the phone
Here's the most tricky part, Redmi 4 China and Redmi 4 Prime are same but you can differentiate them by looking at the location camera and Led flash at the back of the phone. (Redmi 4 China)
(Redmi 4 Prime)
(Redmi 4 India)
METHOD 5. Download Device variants checker You can try Device variants checker apps like AIDA64 and CPU-Z
