According to rumors, Xiaomi could announce its new flagship, Xiaomi Mi 7, during the Mobile World Congress next month. Also, we can say that this model would be available to buy in March. However, the latest information states that the Chinese manufacturer plans to launch the much anticipated Redmi Note 5 before the Xiaomi Mi 7. That means the Note 5 can come at the end of February, also during the mobility fair. As far as we know, it would be a mid-range terminal, with a good screen and a dual camera. We know all the details that have been filtered to date.

INFINITE SCREEN AND METALLIC DESIGN
The new Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 would have a panel of 5.99 inches and Full HD + resolution. It would have an aspect ratio of 18: 9. So we would be talking about an infinite board. The rumors coincide that its design would be very similar to the Redmi 5 Plus, announced in December. It is expected, therefore, without almost having frames and with slightly rounded edges to facilitate the grip.
At the back, there would be room for a fingerprint reader, as you can see in the image below. It would be located just below the double chamber, which would be placed in a vertical position. Leakages in early January revealed that the phone would be 150 mm long x 75 mm full. Its diagonal on the front would be 163 mm. Anyway, we must take these data with caution, as they could be wrong.
TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS
Also, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 would be available with two types of processors. We could opt for a version with a Snapdragon 630, 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB for internal storage. The second version would have a Snapdragon 636, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of space. Logically, this second model would be somewhat more powerful and would have a slightly higher price, as we will inform you a little below.
Regarding the photographic section, the Redmi Note 5 would have a double main sensor of 16 and 5 megapixels. Its front sensor for selfies would be 8 megapixels. For the rest, the new equipment is expected with a battery around 4,000 mAh with fast charge. The operating system included would be Android 7 Nougat and would arrive next to the customization layer of the MIUI 9 company.
POSSIBLE PRICE
Also, the more restrained version of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 with Snapdragon 630 processor could cost about 190 euros to change. The device with a Snapdragon 636 chip would land in the market at around 230 euros. As we say, it is possible that this mobile will be announced at the Mobile World Congress next March. We will give you all the information as soon as we have new news.
