In India, the company decided to make a global debut of the Redmi Note 7 Pro, which packs a 48MP Sony IMX586 sensor. While the Redmi Note 7 that was previously announced in China featured a 48MP Samsung G1 sensor, the company has changed the optics of the device.

Along with the two smartphones, the company has also launched its new Mi LED TV 4A PRO (32-inch) and the Mi Sports Bluetooth Earphones Basic in India.

The phone features Aura Design, which is said to deliver an immersive experience with thinner bezels. It features a 6.3-inch Full HD+ LTPS screen with a 19.5:9 waterdrop notch display design.

As the company had earlier revealed, the Redmi Note 7 Pro comes equipped with a 48MP main rear camera, which is supplemented with a 5MP secondary sensor. It features the Sony IMX586 sensor, which is a half-inch stacked CMOS sensor that is touted to deliver better images in low-light. The primary camera features an f/1.79 aperture lens. The company says that by default, the Redmi Note 7 Pro captures 12MP images and to click an image in 48MP, one will need to navigate to Pro mode in the camera app. The camera can also detect from 33 scenes with AI scene detection and comes with AI portrait 2.0 that is said to enable adjustable bokeh, studio lighting and light trails features. The phone supports capturing 4K videos at 30fps and comes with EIS. On the front, the Note 7 Pro is equipped with a 13MP camera that also enables face unlock.
The Redmi Note 7 Pro is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 display on both the front and the back and comes equipped with a Type-C port. It runs on MIUI 10 based on Android 9 Pie and is backed by a 4000mAh battery that supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 4. While the device supports 18W fast charging, one will get a 10W charger in-the-box.
