Commenting on the new entrant in the market, Mi-Fone CEO Mr. Alpesh Patel said that the Mi 3000 has the upper hand of long battery life, which is one of the greatest challenges for most competing brands.

The Mi3000 is a smart feature phone in that it is very similar to an Android smartphone but at lower price points.
