Xiaomi to launch a new Redmi phone on May 16

Xiaomi’s VP, Manu Kumar Jain, posted a teaser on Twitter today, inviting users and fans for the launch of the next Redmi phone on May 16. Naturally, there are no details on what the phone will be, but it’s clear that this will be yet another mid-ranger. However, it’s also likely that Xiaomi will give away details on the release of the Xiaomi Mi6 in the country.


The launch will be held on the 16th of May at 11:30AM, and we’re guessing the company will hold a live stream to give users a good idea of what’s coming. Reports suggest that the company will announce the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X during the course of the event, with a price tag of Rs 10,000 expected for the handset.

There’s a dedicated page on XiaomiDevice for this particular device where the users can sign up to receive notifications on the launch. The Xiaomi Redmi 5 is a slightly upgraded variant of the Redmi 4, which is already available in the country. One of the key highlights of the Redmi 5 is the fact that it comes with a mammoth 4,100mAh battery under the hood, but it was also speculated that this phone is Xiaomi Redmi Pro 2, what do you think of this new phone?
