Xiaomi’s Redmi brand introduced new Redmi 7 and
Redmi 7A phones earlier this year, now a new Redmi smartphone with model number
M1908C3IC has been certified by TENAA in China and the render of the phone has
also surfaced. The image shows a Dot Notch, dual rear cameras and a
rear-mounted fingerprint scanner similar to the Redmi 7, but the design and the
position of cameras are different.
There is a Redmi branding on the front, below the
screen, and on the back below the fingerprint scanner and there is also a
‘Designed by Xiaomi’ branding. TENAA also reveals a 6.2-inch screen,
156.3×75.4×9.4mm dimensions, revealing that it will be slightly smaller, but
thicker than the Redmi 7 due to 5000mAh battery, compared to 4000mAh in the
predecessor. 3C certification recently confirmed 10W charging support, so this
will not likely be the Redmi Note 8 phone, which will likely come with 18W fast
charging and quad rear cameras with a 64MP main camera.
