A new Redmi phone, perhaps the Redmi 7 could be on its way to the Philippines just days after the Redmi Note 7 and the Mi 9 arrived in the country. The company local arm is starting to release teaser posts that hint at a release of a phone under the new independent Redmi brand.
‘Specifically, ‘the company has taken to its Facebook page with a teaser image that says “Another 7 is coming your way! Are you ready #ForMore?” Although the teaser made no reference to the Redmi 7, there is every chance the company will be launching the Redmi 7, given that the Note 7 and the Mi 9 from its parent brand just arrived the country a couple of days ago. It certainly won’t be the Note 7 Pro, since the company already reportedly’ confirmed that it will not sell that variant in the Philippines.
