Redmi 7 specifications:
The Redmi 7 was launched in China before it came to India last week. It is targeted at people who seek a feature-full device that doesn’t burn a hole in their pockets. Under the hood, the Redmi 7 ships with Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 processor with an option to choose from two storage and RAM variants. The phone comes with 4000mAh battery, and the phone comes bundled with 18W charger. The phone comes with a dot-notch that house the front shooter. The Redmi 7 runs MIUI 10 based on Android 9.0 Pie.
The Redmi 7 features a 6.26-inch HD+ display that offers an aspect ratio of 19:9. It has a 3.5mm headphone jack on top and a fingerprint sensor on the back panel. The P2i coated back panel has the “Redmi by Xiaomi” branding on it. In the camera department, the Redmi 7 sports a 12MP primary sensor with 1.25um pixel size and 1/2.9 aperture lens. There is a 2MP secondary depth sensor, and the camera setup comes with AI features. On the front is an 8MP camera, which is housed in the Dot Notch.
In our first impressions, we found that the phone lacks lustre in performance and camera departments. Of course we’ll be testing the phone for an in-depth review to deliver a concrete verdict, but for Rs 7,999, there are other options to explore as well.
