The Redmi Note 6 Pro comes with Xiaomi's own MIUI 10 based on Android 8 Oreo. 

"MIUI 10's optimisations mean that Redmi Note 6 Pro offers a bump in battery life as well as features including Wi-Fi passthrough and a completely revamped recent menu that makes best use of available screen space," the company said.

The smartphone is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 octa-core processor and fuelled by a 4000mAh battery with support for Qualcomm "Quick Charge" 3.0. 

The dual VoLTE feature in the device means that users would be covered on the connectivity front as well.

Both variants would be eligible for a discount of Rs 500 via HDFC credit and debit cards and EMI only during the Black Friday Sale.

Meanwhile, Reliance Jio would offer a cashback of Rs 2,400 and up to 6TB of 4G data on the purchase of the device.
