As it turns out, the 48MP sensor is actually a Samsung ISOCELL GM1 sensor which was announced by the Korean company back in October. This doesn’t mean that Redmi is turning away from Xiaomi’s long-time camera sensor supplier Sony though as there will be another version of the phone called Redmi Note 7 Pro which will feature the 48MP Sony IMX 586 sensor.
Meanwhile, the 48MP f/1.8 camera is not the only snapper on Redmi Note 7 though as it is also being accompanied by the secondary 5MP camera. Additionally, there is also another 13MP camera which is housed within the teardrop-shaped notch on the phone’s 6.3-inch Full HD+ LTPS display. In terms of processing power, the Redmi Note 7 is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor with RAM options of up to 6GB and storage space of 64GB. Comes standard with USB Type-C port and 4000mAh battery, the new phone also supports Quick Charge 4.0 fast charging tech.
Price-wise, the 3GB/32GB variant of the phone will be sold later this month for CNY 999 (about RM 603) while the 4GB/64GB and 6GB/64GB models will be made available for CNY 1199 (~RM 724 ) and CNY 1399 (~RM 845) respectively. We’ll keep you updated once we receive any updates regarding the phone’s status for Malaysia. (Source: Xiaomi China)
