Three New Redmi Smartphones Set to Launch in India Soon

Launched in China last week, the Redmi Note 7 is expected to succeed the Redmi Note 5 in the Indian market. In most areas, the Redmi Note 7 is a huge upgrade over the Redmi Note 5. This could probably mean the Redmi Note 7 will be launched at a higher price point than its predecessor. The smartphone sports a 6.3-inch IPS LCD display with 1080 x 2340 pixels Full HD+ resolution and a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by a 14nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 AIE octa-core processor with an Adreno 512 GPU. In the camera department, Redmi Note 7 impresses with a 48MP + 5MP dual-camera setup on the back and a 13MP selfie snapper on the front. It also includes a 4000mAh battery with fast charging support, an IR blaster, and a USB Type-C port.

The Redmi Note 7 Pro will come with a 48MP Sony IMX586 sensor on the back, as opposed to the 48MP Samsung ISOCELL GM1 sensor used in the Redmi Note 7. Another area where the Redmi Note 7 Pro is expected to be superior to the standard Redmi Note 7 is performance. The smartphone is rumored to be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 11nm octa-core SoC under the hood, which is a pretty impressive upgrade over the Snapdragon 660 SoC that powers the Redmi Note 7. In China, the smartphone is rumored to be priced at CNY 1,499 (INR 15,750 approx.).

While not much is known about the Redmi Go, the smartphone was recently certified by various agencies including the US FCC, EEC, and SIRIM Malaysia. It is tipped to come with a 5.9-inch sized display and will run on the Android Pie Go Edition out of the box.
