Is the wait over?

Clearly, the folks over at Xiaomi India are riding the waves of the ongoing underground hip-hop scene in the country. Having said that, the launch of the Redmi Note 7 in India is very much awaited as the phone is already selling like hot cakes in China.

To recap, the Redmi Note 7 features a 6.3-inch full HD (2340 x 1080 pixels) IPS display with a tiny notch which gives it an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. The screen is covered by a layer of Gorilla Glass 5 for protection against regular wear and tear. It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset with an octa-core CPU backed by Adreno 512 GPU.

The 48MP camera on the rear is accompanied by a 5MP depth sensor with dual-LED flash in tow. The 48MP 1/2" sensor has an aperture of f/1.8 which should optimally be good for photographs. On the front, there's a 13MP camera for selfies. The back of the phone also houses a fingerprint sensor.

Redmi Note 7 has a 4,000 mAh battery onboard which also supports Quick Charge 4 assisting in fast battery charging.

In China, the Redmi Note 7 comes with 3GB/4GB/6GB RAM versions with 32/64GB internal storage. The storage can further be increased by up to 256GB via microSD card.
