Xiaomi may not have made any official announcement
about the upcoming Redmi Note 5, but leaks earlier this week suggest that it’s
going to hit the market pretty soon. A device that appeared on the TENAA site
rumored to be the Note 5 and another listing on JD.com revealed most of the
device’s specs. So today, Oppomart that is known to be among the first
retailers to list new devices, has the Note 5 listed for US$ 199.
Xiaomi Note 5 is going to
adopt the 18:9 display aspect ratio on its 5.99″ GHD+ display. What is
interesting, is the Snapdragon 625 SoC used, bringing it on par with the Max 2
in terms of performance and power consumption. Also, there are two versions,
one with 3GB/32GB RAM/storage combo and another with 4GB/64GB. Opposed to the
latest rumors, the device will allegedly come with a single camera on the back
(12MP) and a 5MP on the front. Lastly, its battery will have 4000mAh capacity
with fast charge support.
If these specs are legit, remains to be seen, as
other rumors suggest that it will come with Snapdragon 636 SoC.
