Last month, at a launch event in China, Redmi announced its latest budget smartphone — Redmi 7. This was the newly independent company’s fourth smartphone. Now, the company is all set to launch the smartphone in the Indian markets.
According to the report, the Redmi 7 smartphone will be launched in India later this month but the exact timeline is not yet known. Later, the company is also expected to launch two more devices — Redmi Y3 and Redmi 7A, which haven’t made their debut yet.

Coming to the specifications, the smartphone features a 6.26-inch HD+ waterdrop display and is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 octa-core processor. It comes with a dual rear camera setup, consisting of a 12 MP primary sensor and a 2 MP front-facing snapper with an LED flash and several AI-based features.
