Xiaomi to launch Redmi Note 5 in India on February 14th

Ever since Xiaomi’s Redmi 5 and Redmi 5 Plus smartphones were launched in China, there has been a lot of speculation regarding the launch of the upcoming Redmi Note smartphone. Well, it looks like Xiaomi has finally put an end to this debate. The Chinese manufacturer has sent out invitations to the media for a launch event to be held in New Delhi on February 14, and sources familiar with the development say Xiaomi is set to launch the long-awaited Redmi Note 5.

As you can see in the image attached below, the press invite talks about a launch event scheduled for February 14th, with a big “5” written on it. Considering the fact that Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 4 remains the company’s most successful smartphone in the country, it makes a lot of sense to launch its successor here in India instead of the Redmi 5 or Redmi 5 Plus. There is.

There isn’t much information about the specs that the Redmi Note 5 will pack, but it’s not too difficult to make some educated guesses. We already know that this smartphone will debut with an 18:9 screen. The company is said to be launching two versions of the smartphone. One is said to run on the Snapdragon 630 SoC paired with 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage, while the other is said to run on the Snapdragon 636 SoC paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage.

On the software front, the Redmi Note 5 runs the latest version of MIUI, namely MIUI 9. However, we do not yet know whether it will be based on nougat or Oreo. The price is also something that intrigues us. I really hope Xiaomi goes with aggressive pricing like they did with the Redmi Note 4.
