He confirmed that a phone from Redmi utilizing this chip is on the way.
Launch Date Hints for Redmi Turbo 4 Pro
In a response to a comment on his latest Weibo post, Thomas subtly confirmed that the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro could be launched in April. When someone asked if the phone would arrive this month, he simply said “can,” suggesting a launch is very close.
Previously, there were rumors that the launch of the Turbo 4 Pro might be postponed due to a tragic incident involving the Xiaomi SU7, which sadly resulted in three deaths. However, Thomas’s recent posts seem to contradict those rumors, implying that the launch is still set to happen as planned.
Expected Specs of Redmi Turbo 4 Pro
Leaks suggest that the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro may come with a 6.83-inch OLED LTPS display boasting a 1.5K resolution. It’s likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset and include a massive 7,550mAh battery with 90W fast charging. Rumors also indicate that the device will feature a 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens on the back. Additionally, it may have an optical in-screen fingerprint scanner, a metal middle frame, and an IP68/69-rated body for both dust and water resistance. Interestingly, the Poco F7 recently certified in India might be a rebranded or modified version of the Turbo 4 Pro.
Although Redmi is teasing the Turbo 4 Pro with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, it might not be the first phone to launch with this new processor. iQOO has already begun to tease the iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro in China, which is also expected to use the same chipset and is set to be unveiled this month. Pre-bookings for the Z10 Turbo have already started on the company’s official website and various Chinese retail platforms. Besides the Pro variant, iQOO is also set to introduce the Dimensity 8400-powered iQOO Z10 Turbo.
