For those unaware, the Chinese tech giant has announced the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note 9 Pro Max back in March 2020. While the former was made available for purchase from March 17th, the latter had its release delayed. The reason for this was the nationwide mandatory lockdown that the Indian government had imposed, which caused various launches to also be postponed.

Now, with the government planning on relaxing the lockdown in various areas, Xiaomi has finally unveiled the launch date for the Redmi Note 9 Pro MAX. The smartphone will start sale on 12th May 2020, starting from 12 pm IST (Indian Standard Time). It will be a part of a flash sale and will be available through various online vendors. This includes its own official Mi.com website alongside the popular e-retailer, Amazon India.
