After the long wait, Xiaomi officially launched the Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro in India some days ago. The company’s Marketing Director Zang Zhiyuan just confirmed that the Redmi Note 5 would be hitting the China market pretty soon, just days after the launch in India. The company’s Marketing Director mentioned the Redmi Note 5 and added Manu Kumar Jain Weibo post on the Redmi Note 5 Pro which comes with a better configuration, especially the dual rear cameras. Xiaomi calls the Redmi Note 5 Pro, “India’s camera beast” due to its enhanced camera capability. In the Weibo post, he also confirmed the that the Redmi Note 5 would come with a camera surprise.
The source didn’t differentiate the main difference between both devices, but when it comes to the camera set up, we would see something different. Something is sure, both devices the Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro sport a similar design, but while the Redmi Note 5 sports only one camera on the rear side, the Redmi Note 5 Pro comes with a dual camera setup on its back.
It’s quite clear that the camera of the China version of the Redmi Note 5 may likely take a different configuration from the one announced in India. It is worth mentioning that, the Redmi Note 5 comes with a 5.99-inch fullHD+ (2160 x 1080) display and runs on Android 7.1.2 Nougat and Xiaomi’s MIUI 9 skin on top of it. It features a 12MP rear camera with f/2.2 aperture and an individual pixel size of 1.25?m. It comes with features like fast autofocus and PDAF. On the front side, it sports an 8MP camera which has been fabricated in such a way to capture good quality selfie shots in low-light conditions and equipped with an LED flash and Beauty 3.0 for snapping enhanced selfie shots. Judging by Zang Zhiyuan statement, the China version of the Redmi Note 5 is expected to come with a different camera specification but what would change is still not known. Let’s keep our finger crossed as the device would soon go official in China and we would get to know the main difference.
