Redmi General Manager Wang Teng Thomas shared that the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro would debut this month and suggested that it would be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4.
Earlier reports about a recent Xiaomi SU7 crash started rumors about the postponement of the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro launch. However, when asked about whether the handheld would be unveiled this month, Wang Teng directly answered that the launch is still happening in April.
The news complements an earlier post made by the manager about the power of the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. According to him, the chip will be used in an upcoming Redmi model, which is expected to be the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro.
According to earlier leaks, the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro will also offer a 6.8″ flat 1.5K display, a 7550mAh battery, 90W charging support, a metal middle frame, a glass back, and a short-focus in-screen fingerprint scanner. A tipster on Weibo claimed last month that the price of the vanilla Redmi Turbo 4 could drop to give way to the Pro model. To recall, the said model starts at CN¥1,999 for its 12GB/256GB configuration and tops at CN¥2,499 for the 16GB/512GB variant.
