As always, when a new phone comes on the market, people are curious about the internal components. Since the Note 3 is no exception, here's a teardown/disassembly to show you the inside and the parts inside. Here we can see which manufacturers have contributed to the production of each part, for example the fingerprint sensor comes from FPC (1022), while the camera comes from Samsung (S5K3M2 ISOCELL Sensor). The individual components have been better packed together, as we saw with the Note 2, so a heat conductive paste has been used in some places to avoid overheating.

Here are the pictures

The Redmi Note 3 is the first Xiaomi device to feature a unibody design in the Redmi Note series. We start the disassembly from the back. We started by opening the small slot next to the micro USB socket on the back.

At the back, the plastic parts at the top and bottom of the device are actually part of the back cover. When you take off the back cover, you will find a ribbon connector cable through which the fingerprint sensor connects to the motherboard.

The fingerprint sensor mechanism is glued to the backplate to prevent it from moving or rattling. The next step is to remove the 5 screws that hold the speaker unit in place. Before proceeding, disconnect the battery to prevent any possible short circuit or malfunction.

As the battery is glued down we used a heat gun to remove it. A 4000 mAh battery is included which is not user replaceable, unlike previous Redmi Notes.

We then removed the speaker unit, the ribbon cable, and the ribbon cable connecting the micro USB port and the speaker to the motherboard. The micro USB port is glued to the display.

We then proceeded to remove the motherboard, removing the removable socket ribbon cable and the fixing screws. This allows the removal of the top part.

The back cover can be removed by removing the ribbon cable. The front camera can also be removed at the same time. Above, you can see the 13MP f/2.2 primary camera with PDAF autofocus and dual-tone dual-LED flash and the 5-megapixel f/2.0 front camera.

Finally, the MediaTek MT6795 Helio X10 eight-core SoC, PowerVR G6200 GPU and MediaTek controller are revealed under the metal shield. Below you'll also find the full disassembly in video form.
