Redmi Turbo 4 Pro incoming in April
One of the biggest announcements was the upcoming launch of a new Redmi smartphone, expected next month. This device, believed to be the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, is designed to cater to young consumers seeking high performance, quality, and extended battery life. The phone is rumored to feature the next-generation Snapdragon 8s Elite chipset, which could make it one of the first phones to run on this powerful new processor. Expect excellent performance, a long-lasting battery, and overall improved user experience.
Redmi K80 Ultra and next Xiaomi Civi phone confirmed
In addition to the Turbo 4 Pro, Mia revealed that Xiaomi is working on the Redmi K80 Ultra, with a release expected earlier than last year’s model. While the Redmi K70 Ultra launched in July 2024, the K80 Ultra could be unveiled in May or June. This device is likely to feature the Dimensity 9400 Plus chipset, which will also power future models from Vivo, Oppo, and iQOO.
For fans seeking a balanced flagship experience, the Xiaomi Civi series will also see a significant update. The upcoming Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro is expected to offer major improvements, all while maintaining its sleek and compact design. This model may include the Snapdragon 8s Elite SoC, delivering top-tier performance in a premium, smaller package.
Furthermore, Xiaomi is preparing to launch a new tablet aimed at users who demand both portability and power. This device is rumored to be the Xiaomi Pad 7s Pro, which was recently spotted at China’s 3C certification with a 120W charger.
Redmi K90 Series and Xiaomi YU7
Mia also mentioned that Xiaomi is working on the Redmi K90 series, focusing particularly on a major upgrade to its imaging capabilities. However, since the K90 is still in early development, she advised fans to focus on the Redmi K80 lineup for now. Based on Xiaomi’s usual release schedule, the K90 series could be announced in November 2025.
Finally, Xiaomi’s YU7 model, which is being hyped as a Tesla Model Y killer, is undergoing road testing. The test will be led by Xiaomi’s top executive, Wang Teng Thomas, with reports suggesting the device will debut in China in July.
Interestingly, there was no mention of Xiaomi’s foldable segment during the live broadcast. According to reports, the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2, which is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, is slated for a May release. However, it appears that there will be no new book-style foldable device from the brand this year
