Chinese electronics firm Xiaomi, which currently leads the Indian smartphone market, is working on launching a 120 W fast-charging capable smartphone in the market. As per the 91Mobiles report, this could either be the recently released Xiaomi 11T Pro or the even more recent, Redmi Note 11 Pro+. The latter was launched by the company in China just a while back. The report also said that the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ might be rebranded as the Redmi Note 11i Hypercharge in India. So the device certainly will bring a ground-breaking fast charging to make this tagline hard to beat.
There isn’t an exact launch date for the
Redmi Note 11i HyperCharge. However, some rumors suggest it will be deployed in
December. This will be the second device of the Redmi Note 11 series to launch
in India. The Chinese Redmi Note 11 5G was unveiled in the Indian market
earlier today with Redmi Note 11T moniker. So the Redmi Note 11i HyperCharge
will be the second device to further establish the lineup. We also expect a
vanilla Redmi Note 11 and a Redmi Note 11 Pro for the market that will bear
these monikers but will be completely different from their Chinese
counterparts.
Since the Hypercharge handset will be
based on the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ we already know a lot of what to expect. The
device flaunts a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate and
Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. There is also a punch-hole camera on the front.
The device will have three cameras on the back. There is a 108 MP primary
camera, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP depth sensor.
The device will also bring a side-mounted
fingerprint scanner as Xiaomi is still not bringing the in-display tech to
mid-range smartphones. The device will bring a punch-hole display for the 16 MP
snapper. It will pack a 4,500 mAh battery which isn’t the largest one that
Xiaomi usually chips. However, the battery is charged with 120 W fast charging.
The device also has 5G connectivity,
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, and NFC. It also has a USB Type-C port. Under the
hood, the handset boasts the MediaTek Dimensity 920 SoC with up to 8 GB of
LPDDR4X RAM, 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The device has true stereo speakers
tweaked by JBL. The Xiaomi 11T Pro also appeared on India’s BIS certification
earlier. So it’s another candidate to be deployed in India as the first Redmi
phone with 120W charging.
