Xiaomi might have said that the time to launch in the US isn’t right yet, but their actions say differently!

Xiaomi are obviously very interested in entering the U.S market. They already sell a few of their accessories in the country, they were at CES this month and now a new Redmi Model has been spotted over at the FCC!

According to reports the new phone is a new Redmi Note model and it could be headed for an official launch at MWC.

No photos of the Redmi Note 5 accompany the details but a line drawing of the phone with CE mark and specifications have been released. From the image we see that the Redmi Note 5 isn’t all that different from current all alloy large screen Redmi phones and features a main camera and fingerprint sensor on the rear.

    I wonder when the other phones will get a Stable and non beta rom of MiUi 9. I’d rather not run beta software on my Mi5/Mi max

      My Mi4c is still waiting on Nougat.

        I’m not sure if you noticed but my comment was regarding a stable rom, not beta. Accordingly, neither Mi5 or Mi Max have Nougat either unless you want beta roms. So technically – none of the Xiaomi phones have nougat.

    Note 5 or International Snapdragon version of Note 4? I ask because I dont see the Note 5 label anywhere.

    This might be the Redmi Note 4 which is about to be launched in India replacing the 650 powered redmi note 3

    Could be that the Redmi Note 4X is re-branded into Redmi Note 5 with the Snapdragon 653(not 652).

    I tried the Note 3 for a while but after using the Mi 5, the Note 3 felt like a brick so I hope that future Notes are a bit less bulky.

      Normally for Redmi Note And Mi note the screen are biggest sixe (5.5″ or bigger) so more or less it is confirm bigger size than Mi series that only have 5″ screen.

      But my own opinion,i always choose bigger battery than slimmer smarpthone.
