When will redmi note 5 come out?

One of the most anticipated smartphones of the fall season is Xiaomi Redmi Note 5. Of course, from the point of view of the attention of the press, experts and analysts, it is far from the flagships, but the interest of ordinary buyers in new Xiaomi will be huge.

Its predecessor, the RN4, has become a hit in many countries for its excellent price / performance ratio. Will the fifth RN be able to repeat his success? Let's look at the characteristics and price of Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 in various configurations and try to predict its market fate.

Redmi Note 5: a minus in autonomy?

One of the key advantages of the RN4 was its excellent autonomy. With rational use of the smartphone, the operating time from one charge was calculated in days (RN4 could last up to 5 days). With the screen active, the phone worked for 15-18 hours, and it was possible to talk in 3G networks for up to a day and a half without recharging.

The RN4's luxurious autonomy had two explanations. The first is a very well-optimized Snapdragon 625 processor in terms of power consumption. The chipset is manufactured using a 14 nm process technology and runs on economical ARM Cortex-A53 cores. The second term of success is powerful battery at 4100 mAh.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 will have a different processor - either Snapdragon 660 or Snapdragon 630. In the second case (S630) there will be no dramatic differences in power consumption from its predecessor, in the first (S660) they are inevitable, since the chipset is built on a faster and more aggressive architecture Kryo 260 CPU. At the same time, the battery of the new item will be weaker - 3790 mAh.

It turns out that it will be difficult to reach the autonomy of the RN4. Most likely, Redmi Note 5 will lose a few points in each mode of operation, but it will not turn into a phone that needs to be charged every evening.

Redmi Note 5: plus in speed?

We have already mentioned the hardware part, it's time to reveal the topic in detail. While there is no exact information about which chipset Redmi Note 5 will get, one thing is clear - it will be new processor from Qualcomm, created according to the 14 nm process technology: either Snapdragon 660 or Snapdragon 630. It is also possible that the top-end RN5 configuration will be released on the S660, and the base model on the S630.

What to expect from these processors? we told in a special article, here we will focus on the main thing.

The 630 Dragon is an improved version of the S625 (found in RN4). The key difference is the division of cores into fast (2.2 GHz) and energy efficient clusters (1.8 GHz). The architecture remains the same - Cortex A53. You can count on an increase in the speed of work, but not much: if RN4 scored about 62 thousand points in Antutu 6, then Redmi Note 5 on S630 will be able to gain somewhere between 68-70 thousand.

But Redmi Note 5 on Snapdragon 660 runs the risk of becoming a nimble smartphone, which would have competed with some flagships last year. In the 660th Dragon, a custom architecture was used: the Kryo 260 CPU cores are installed here, and this is a simplified version of the architecture of the flagship Snapdragon 835 chip. The results of the S660 in Antutu are already known - test bench on this chipset, it scored 105,576 points, which is almost double that of the Redmi Note 4.

So, the performance of Redmi Note 5 will definitely increase, the only question is how much. This will also contribute to the rejection of the configuration with 2 GB random access memory... The novelty is planned to be released in three versions:

• 3 GB operational + 32 GB internal.
• 4 GB operational + 32 GB internal.
• 4 GB operational + 64 GB internal.

Redmi Note 5: new smartphone - new cameras

Another good news awaits amateurs mobile photography... The 13 megapixel module, annoying to all fans of Xiaomi, has finally decided to be replaced. According to rumors, in Redmi Note 5, the main camera will receive a sensor IMX234 with permission 16 megapixels, and the resolution of the front module will increase to 13 megapixels... Automatic focusing of the main module will remain on phase technology, the aperture of the optical system is f / 2.0.

Redmi Note 5: body, screen

There is no confirmed information on the size of the smartphone yet, but everything indicates that the thickness of the case will decrease to 7.5 mm... According to most experts, this is what dictated the need to cut the battery from 4100 mAh to 3790 mAh. As for the materials, most likely, nothing will change - the metal cover will remain.

Instead of the outdated microUSB, there should be USB Type-C 1.0 ... New processors support fast charging Qualcomm QC 3.0 and QC 4.0, and one of these technologies should be implemented in Redmi Note 5. Another interesting opportunity, which the Snapdragon 660 processor opens - support.

They do not plan to change the screen, at least not a word about it yet. Remains 5.5 display with permission Full HD on the matrix IPS LCD, as in XRN4. The screen of the predecessor was distinguished by a pleasant picture with excellent contrast and good readability in the sun, so you really can not change anything here.

Xiaomi Redmi 5A review

Since the look first of all when choosing a device falls on the appearance, we will start with it. Xiaomi Redmi 5A is made in all genres of building Xiaomi smartphones: there are plastic inserts at the back, top and bottom; the speaker grill is installed just above the bottom insert, and the Xiaomi logo is above the speaker. The cameras were also placed in a classical way. The main one is at the back, the selfie module is at the front; we will consider them in more detail a little later. The material of the case was plastic, since they save on everything in the state employee. The connectors were all left in place, on the bottom there is a port for charging MicroUSB, on the top there is a 3.5mm mini-jack.

5 ″ display in Xiaomi Redmi 5A is not bad, but it got from its predecessor, which somewhat darkens the situation, because it was possible to install an IPS-matrix with Full resolution HD (1080x1920 pixels). However, for a budget device, HD resolution is quite tolerable.

The next step is to evaluate the characteristics. The heart of Xiaomi Redmi 5A is a 64-bit chipset from Qualcomm: Snapdragon 430. It has 8 Cortex-A53 cores, built on 28nm architecture and capable of overclocking to 1.4GHz. It is clear that the smartphone does not have enough stars from the sky, but it can dial about 38 thousand in anttuu thanks to the Adreno 505 video accelerator. about 3GB of RAM, others - about 2GB of RAM. There is nothing to say about LTE support, because at the moment only the cheapest gadgets can do without 4G. Battery capacity of 3080mAh will last for one day normal work, with minimum brightness and power saving mode, you can not run to the outlet for 2 days.

The cameras in the Xiaomi Redmi 5A are identical to the Xiaomi Redmi 4A. A module from Samsung is installed at the back: S5K3L8 with 13MP and LED flash, and in front there is only a 5MP sensor.

Xiaomi Redmi 5A comparison with Xiaomi Redmi 4A

To begin with, we will compare the Xiaomi Redmi 5A with its predecessor, the Redmi 4A. As you can see from the characteristics, there are practically no differences. The battery capacity is not much less in the new product, the display, memory, cameras and OS are generally similar. The main change is the processor. The Redmi 5A was equipped with a Snapdragon 430, while the previous model had a Snapdragon 425 chipset. But even they are almost identical! Well, you can not say anything about the design, because Xiaomi is a conservative company and many phones are made in the same style (the exception is, for example, Xiaomi Mi Mix). However, because of this, the price of the new item will be slightly less than that of the Redmi 4A.

Xiaomi Redmi 5A comparison with Huawei Honor 6C

Honor 6C is almost identical to the upcoming Redmi 5A in almost everything - the processor is of the same level, the same screen, in fact the same cameras, the battery differs only slightly.
