According to recent reports, Redmi India is gearing up to introduce a new device dubbed Redmi Note 11T 5G in the market. Interestingly, this will be the very first Redmi Note 11 smartphone to enter a “global market”. Back in October, Xiaomi unveiled the Redmi Note 11 series, but the devices are exclusive to the Chinese market. We expect the brand to eventually bring them to global markets with a hardware replacement. Anyway, the Redmi Note 11T 5G should be the very first handset to land in the sub-continent, but it’s not an entirely new handset for those following Xiaomi news.
According to reports, the Redmi Note 11T 5G will be a rebranded POCO M4 Pro 5G, which also sells as Redmi Note 11 5G in the Chinese market. The device is slated to cost around INR 15,000 or $200. It was rumored to hit India on November 30, and now the confirmation has arrived. The device was listed at Amazon and had a designated landing page with some marketing slogans.
The Redmi Note 11T is the direct sequel of the Redmi Note 10T 5G. Interestingly, this handset is also based on the POCO M3 Pro 5G apart from the design. It is also sold in China as Redmi Note 10 5G. Therefore, Redmi seems to be sticking with the last-gen strategy for the newer models.
