Xiaomi Redmi 7 design, full specs leaked, Snapdragon 632 and 4,000mAh battery tipped
The Redmi 7 launch seems imminent
The Redmi 7 launch seems imminent. The Redmi 7, which is said to be the successor of the Redmi 6, has leaked in full courtesy an alleged hands-on video doing the rounds of the internet – this includes both design as well as hardware specs.
The Redmi 7, by the looks of it, will look a lot like the Redmi Note 7/Redmi Note 7 Pro – it will also have a similar dot notch but a relatively thicker chin. Unlike the all-glass body of the Redmi Note 7/Redmi Note 7 Pro though, the Redmi 7 will be all-plastic. Also, unlike the Redmi Note 7/Redmi Note 7 Pro that come with USB Type-C, the Redmi 7 will use standard micro-USB for charging and data syncing.
The hands-on video shows off the blue variant although there should be more colours at launch. Also, the hands-on video shows off an odd 3GB RAM and 64GB configuration – a recent TENAA listing suggested the Redmi 7 will come in 2GB/16GB, 3GB/32GB and 4GB/64GB configurations.
The rest of the hardware specs seem to be in line with the affordable nature of phone. The Redmi 7 is said to come with a 6.26-inch 720p+ display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 processor under the hood. The phone is said to come with dual rear cameras (12MP+5MP) and 8MP front camera. It is further said to pack a 4,000mAh battery.

According to the leak, the Redmi 7 will cost CNY 900 which roughly translates to Rs 9,399 – it isn’t clear if the quoted price is for the specified variant being talked about in the hands-on video, or if it is the Redmi 7’s starting price.
Xiaomi is yet to confirm the existence of the Redmi 7 so we suggest you take this piece of information with a pinch of salt – also the presence of the Redmi Note 7 and Redmi Note 7 Pro means, it would be hard for Xiaomi to justify a Redmi 7. But the company has been successfully pulling off such a portfolio for a while now – a Redmi 7A could be also in the works for all you know. So, we will have to wait and watch how things pan out in the days to come.
