Xiaomi founder Lei Jun announced a new Redmi Note – called the Hongmi Note in China – will be unveiled today. The founder has leaked specs in two recent posts about the Chinese phone maker’s budget phablet on Weibo.
So far, Lei has revealed the new Redmi Note will have 4G connectivity, 5.5-inch screen, 3100mAh battery, and weigh 155 grams. That makes it 10 grams lighter than the previous version, but the battery is also 100mAh smaller.
The original Redmi note sold 3.56 million units as of July, according to Lei.
Xiaomi last month also announced its new upcoming flagship phone, the Mi4, which will go on sale sometime this month, carrier pending.
