Redmi India has tweeted a new tweet to launch a new smartphone in India on November 30th where is expected to launch a new Redmi series smartphone in the country. Redmi India is calling it “Desh Ka Smartphone” so it is widely expected that the November 30 launch could see the release of a new smartphone in a price category that it has not tapped so far.
With the new Redmi Y1 and Redmi Y1 Lite series already in India, the company may bring the Redmi 5A smartphone in India. The Xiaomi Redmi 5A is the likeliest candidate, as it is positioned higher than the Redmi 4A in Xiaomi’s portfolio, but we will have to wait a week for the launch to find out.
For those unaware, the Xiaomi Redmi 5A was launched in China last month, priced at CNY 599 – approximately Rs. 5,894 and comes in Platinum Silver, Champagne Gold, and Rose Gold color options. The Redmi 5A features a 5.0-inch IPS display with HD (720 x 1280 pixels) resolution that is rated a pixel density of 296ppi, 1000: 1 contrast ratio, and 72% (typ) / 68% (min) color gamut.
