After a long wait, the frequently teased phone from Xiaomi has finally been released. We’ve seen leaked cases of the device on Flipkart and have come across several leaks before. Xiaomi has launched not one but two smartphones at the same time. The Redmi Note 5 Pro was launched alongside the Redmi Note 5 and the Pro variant comes with better specifications and a dual camera setup at a small premium.

The Redmi Note 5 Pro will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chipset and has the Adreno 506 GPU. The chipset is run by the Kryo 260 CPU. The device comes in three variants and the 3GB RAM variant has 32GB internal storage and you can choose between either 4GB RAM + 64GB internal storage or 6GB RAM + 64GB internal storage. This sets the performance bar high with the very capable Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 Chipset and the 6GB RAM option. The display on the device is a beautifully designed 5.99-inch FullHD+ display with a resolution of 2160×1080. The color to contrast ratio on this display is better than what we saw on the Redmi Note 5 and stands at 1500:1 while the brightness still maxes out at 450 nits.
