Redmi Note 7 Pro arrives with 48 MP camera and 128 GB storage

What a wonderful day for fans of affordable smartphones in India - first Samsung introduced the Galaxy A10 and now the Redmi Note 7 Pro officially debuted, along with the Redmi Note 7. The Pro variant is everything we expected - Snapdragon 675, 48 MP camera and up to 128 GB storage. The vanilla version, however, received a camera downgrade and comes with a 12 MP main shooter.

The Redmi Note 7 Pro chipset is coupled with octa-core CPU that goes as high as 2 GHz and comes with Adreno 612 GPU. The 48 MP sensor is Sony IMX586, which is an upgrade from the Samsung GM1 sensor, found in the Redmi Note 7 and numerous other midrangers. There are two memory options - 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage or 6 GB + 128 GB storage, with a microSD slot on board.

Body-wise, the new phone is exactly the same as the old one, including the 4,000 mAh battery and the 6.3” display. The phone supports Quick Charge 4 but comes with a regular 10W charger in the retail box. Other interesting specs include Gorilla Glass 5 on front and back.

The Indian version of the Redmi Note 7 still has a Snapdragon 660 chipset, 6.3” screen, and 4,000 mAh battery, but the camera setup is 12 MP + 2 MP. It also lacks the neat gradient colors - you can pick from Onyx Black, Sapphire Blue, and Ruby Red. It will be launched on March 6 for INR9,999 (the 3/32 GB option) or INR11,999 (the 4/64 GB variant).
