Now that Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset is out, Redmi has announced its plan to release a new smartphone equipped with this new processor.
The company has been tight-lipped on the specific model yet, but speculation points out that it could be the Redmi Note 13 Turbo. However, details about the smartphone are scarce at the moment.
Redmi introduced the Note 12 Turbo smartphone with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 chipset in China back in March 2023. So initial rumors suggested that the Note 13 Turbo would naturally follow suit with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chip.
However, a recent leak suggested that the Redmi Note 13 Turbo will actually launch with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. With Redmi’s announcement aligning with this leak, it appears that the Note 13 Turbo will indeed have the new Snapdragon 8-series chip.
Also to note, a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 12 Turbo, called the Poco F5, was announced for the global market in May 2023. So reports suggest that the upcoming Redmi Note 13 Turbo will remain exclusive to China as its predecessor and it will be launched globally as the Poco F6.
Apart from the new Redmi phone, Xiaomi has announced that the Civi 4 Pro smartphone will also be equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip. While the launch date for the Civi 4 Pro has been set for March 21, it’s unclear whether or if the new Redmi phone will also debut on the same day.
Nevertheless, we’ll continue to provide updates on the matter as soon as any new information becomes available.
