Xiaomi is set to launch the Redmi Turbo 4 in its home market of China on 2nd January 2025. But recent leaks and teasers have already given us an idea about its specs, features, and design. One look at the upcoming device and we see how its design seems to be inspired by the Apple iPhone 16. So here’s how the Redmi Turbo 4 looks similar to the 2024 iPhone.
In recent years, Android smartphone manufacturers shifted away from using curved panels on the front display or even the rear panel in favor of a simple flat design. This is also a design element that modern iPhones are known for. So when the teaser of the Redmi Turbo 4 was shared online, it seemed quite similar to this trend of a flat back on the back and a flat display on the rear. So it doesn’t just look like an iPhone 16, it might feel the same in your hands as well. The only rounded part is the corners, which is another aspect that iPhones offer.
2. The Camera Module
The Cupertino based giant takes its time before implementing any major design changes or overhauls to its successful lineup of products, especially the iPhone. But the iPhone 16 lineup brought a bunch of minor yet notable changes. just like the more expensive variants, it also included a dedicated camera button along with a slight change in its rear camera layout.
Moving away from a slanted module, the iPhone 16 now houses its dual cameras in a vertically stacked oval module. Just looking at the Redmi Turbo 4 from the back, the exact same placement and camera module can be seen here as well. To be fair, this isn’t entirely an Apple exclusive look and variations of this have surfaced before. But one can’t help but draw comparisons when the inspiration seems too similar.
3. Premium Glass Build
Xiaomi often builds sleek and attractive smartphones with a premium body outside of its more expensive or flagship lineups. The Redmi Turbo 4 is also getting a similar treatment with a glass rear panel. iPhones are seen as a true premium brand, which is thanks to its attention to the design of the iPhone.
Always blending glass with metal, and it seems like the iPhone 16 may have the metallic frame as well. But one area where the Redmi Turbo 4 takes things a step further is the dual tone design. You can see a dual tone finish with a forstel matte glass running from the top to the bottom. Some aspects regarding the Turbo 4’s designs are still unconfirmed to take this last bit with a grain of salt. Stick around for more as we will be covering the smartphone’s launch next year.
