The Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note 9 Pro Max models have gone official in India. The Note 9 series phones with some exciting features like big-sized displays, large-sized batteries, 64-megapixel quad cameras and more. While the Redmi Note 9 Pro duo went official in India as 4G phones, there have been speculations that the Redmi Note 9 series for China will include 5G-ready handsets. However, a fresh Weibo post from Redmi General Manager Lu Weibing suggests that the company may skip the Redmi Note 9 series in China.
Weibing has claimed that the company is currently focused on bringing 5G products in China. While the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max are feature-rich budget-friendly phones with 4G support, they are only aimed towards overseas market. In other words, these phones are not planned for the Chinese markets.
Redmi is currently focused on the launch of the upcoming Redmi K30 Pro 5G phone. The exact launch date of the phone is currently under the wraps. However, it is expected to go official by the end of this month.
Redmi’s focus on 5G products for the home market suggests that the company may want to launch the Note series phones with 5G support. Hence, it appears that the Redmi Note 9 series will be skipped and there could be plans to launch Redmi Note 10 series 5G support. The Note 10 lineup will be arriving as the 10th anniversary Redmi phones from the company.
Weibing has also said in another Weibo post that the company will be not only announcing the Redmi K30 Pro at the upcoming launch conference, but also it will debut something else. Last year, the Chinese firm had launched RedmiBook 14 at the Redmi K20 Pro. It remains to be seen whether the company announces new Redmi laptops or some other devices at the K30 Pro unveil event.
