Last month, a trademark listing for RedmiBook was spotted on the website of Intellectual Property India, an agency for patents and trademarks. This development also seems to be in line with the company’s planning for the Indian market.
For those who are unaware, Xiaomi launched the RedmiBook 14 — the first Redmi-branded laptop — in May last year, with new variants in the same screen size launching in July, August, and October 2019.
The latest model in this series is the RedmiBook 13, which was launched alongside the Redmi K30 smartphone in China.
Meanwhile, Redmi will be launching its entry-level smartphone lineup in the Indian market on 11th February. While the company has not revealed what product it plans to launch, it is expected to be the Redmi 9A series, to rival the recently launched Realme C3 in India.
