Xiaomi has already launched four models for its Redmi 5 line. First, it released the Xiaomi Redmi 5A, an entry-level smartphone made to repeat the Xiaomi Redmi 4A’s success. A couple of months later, it came in with two full-screen phones in face of the Xiaomi Redmi 5 and Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus. And there is also the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A. So to complete the list the manufacturer should launch the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 as well. The latter has been rumored and leaked in various photos and documents too much. And the latest leak seems to be a confirmation of all those features.
Gizchina News of the week
The annual flagship of the company is going to launch in March. The Xiaomi Mi 7 will be announced in late February at MWC 2018 along with other Snapdragon 845-powered models such as the Samsung Galaxy S9. But before that, we are going to see another phone from this manufacturer. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 is rumored to hit the market next month. Moreover, it’s already reported to have gone into mass production.
This time, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 has been leaked on a radio emission approval documents with codenames of MEE7S and MET7S. These should be the unlocked and specific-carrier models of the upcoming phone. Our assumptions are based on a previous experience when the Xiaomi Redmi 5 was codenamed MEE7.
Anyway, the phone is rumored to come with a 5.99-inch full-screen with an 18:9 aspect ratio, Snapdragon 636 chip clocked at 1.8GHz, built-in Adreno 509 GPU, built-in 4100mAh battery supporting 18W fast charge, MIUI9, 16+ 5MP rear camera, and 8MP front shooter. There should be two variants. The 3+32GB is said to cost 1499 yuan ($268), while the 4+64GB model is rumored to go on sale at 1799 yuan ($284).
soooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.. but could have been happier if it had 640 or 660 instead.
$268 is overpriced for 3Gb Redmi phone… If it’s true, Xiaomi get too more competitors.
For me has more sense that MEE7S and MET7S are just the codenames for the upcoming Global versions of the actual Redmi 5 and Redmi 5 Plus.
