Xiaomi fans who were expecting a new Redmi flagship in December may have to wait awhile longer. Wang Teng, the country’s Vice General Manager of Marketing Department and General Manager of brand Redmi, has recently confirmed via Weibo that the company’s last product launch for December teased under keyword “Little Cyclone” has been delayed.
While such a delay has dampened down the excitement for some people, according to insiders and bloggers, it will pay to have the patience of Job as Redmi Turbo 4 is going to be among the most promising and high-efficient smartphones in the Redmi family.
A “Super Cup” Design: What Makes the Redmi Turbo 4 Stand Out?
Prominent tech blogger Digital Chat Station recently referred to the upcoming Redmi device as a “super-large cup design,” meaning the phone will pack premium features rarely seen in the Redmi series. Here’s what has been revealed so far:
- Battery: A huge 6,500mAh battery for extended usage.
- Display: 1.5K LTPS narrow-bezel flat display with eye-protection technology, ensuring a seamless and immersive viewing experience.
- A glass body coupled with a plastic mid-frame to balance the durability with cost-effectiveness.
- A short-focus optical fingerprint scanner for fast and secure unlocking.
- Camera: A 50 MP dual-camera setup arrangement on the back panel within the upper-left side alignment.
- Chipset: Powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8 series platform for high efficiency and performance in daily tasks and gaming.
Launch Timeline: Before the Spring Festival
Although the December launch plan has changed, Xiaomi has reassured all fans that the Redmi Turbo 4 will hit the market before the Chinese Spring Festival so it can be a sure highlight among Xiaomi’s early 2025 lineups. For a fan’s question via Weibo, Digital Chat Station said confidently that the phone would launch “of course” ahead of the holiday.
What to Expect from the Redmi Turbo 4?
The Redmi Turbo 4 is expected to front the most advanced Redmi phone of 2024, combining a super-largest battery, eye-friendly hi-res display, and powerful Helio Dimensity chipset in a design that seamlessly marries sleekness with practicality. Another meaning of “super cup” is flagship features; however, it will clearly not be a flagship device, because such is the Redmi brand positioning. On that note, Xiaomi has thrown the teasers: the “Little Cyclone.” Delayed but imminent, this could be the big addition necessary for solidifying Redmi’s place among leading manufacturers who provide maximum value to devices at price-sensitive prices. Await the launch of the Redmi Turbo 4 that Xiaomi is getting ready to roll out in just weeks!
