The Xiaomi Redmi 7 will be presented in Beijing on January 10: it will have a 48-megapixel rear camera and a 5.8” screen. It will also arrive in Italy
Xiaomi is ready to present its first smartphone of the year. On its official website and on the official account on Weibo (the most used social network in China) has given appointment for January 10 for the presentation of a new Redmi smartphone. It has not been specified which device will be the protagonist of the event, but in all probability it is the new Redmi 7.
The Chinese company has not leaked too much information about this device: in the flyer published on social media it refers to the number 48. According to some insiders, this is the 48-megapixel photo sensor developed by Sony and that will be mounted on many devices coming out in 2019. During the event, in addition to presenting the Redmi 7, Xiaomi is also expected to announce the birth of a new brand, as already done in recent months with Pocophone. The name of the new brand owned by Xiaomi will be precisely Redmi that will have the task of making mid-range smartphones with an excellent quality-price ratio, following the philosophy of the Chinese company.
How will the Xiaomi Redmi 7
Xiaomi has been good so far to hide the features of the Redmi 7. It is possible, however, to make assumptions seeing what has been done in recent months by the Chinese company. The smartphone is expected to mount a Snapdragon 710 chipset with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. The screen should be 5.8 inches with HD+ resolution and 19:9 aspect ratio. The design should show the “teardrop” notch, like the main devices released in recent months. This will allow to increase the space available to the display. The only apparent certainty concerns the rear camera: there will be no dual camera, but a single sensor from 48 Megapixels made by Sony. In the front the camera will be 20 Megapixel.
The Xiaomi Redmi 7 could also be produced with a different technical card: usually the Chinese company produces several models of the same smartphone. The device could also come to the market in a 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory (expandable via microSD) version.
When will the Xiaomi Redmi 7 be released
The Chinese company has given an appointment to the press for January 10 at 14:00 in Beijing. The smartphone will be marketed immediately in China and then in the Rest of the World. To see it in Italy we will probably have to wait for the month of February or March.
