Redmi has finally put an end to speculation surrounding the arrival of the Turbo 5 in India. After teasing the handset for several days, the brand has now confirmed when the device will make its debut, giving prospective buyers a clearer timeline for its launch.
Redmi Turbo 5 India launch date confirmed
A teaser page on Amazon India confirms that the Redmi Turbo 5 will launch in the country on June 16. The promotional material describes it as the fastest Redmi smartphone to date, indicating that performance will be one of its key selling points. While the company has locked in the launch date, it has not yet revealed whether any additional products will accompany the smartphone at the event.
The confirmation comes after Redmi began teasing the device on Amazon India in May. Early teasers revealed the rear design of the handset, which closely matches the Redmi Turbo 5 version introduced in China earlier this year. The phone features a dual-camera setup on the back, with LED lighting integrated into the camera rings, along with a black colour option.
Redmi Turbo 5: What to expect?
Although Redmi has not officially disclosed the Indian variant’s specifications, the device is expected to retain the hardware offered in China. The Turbo 5 features a 6.59-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and peak brightness of up to 3,500 nits. It runs on HyperOS 3 based on Android 16 and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500-Ultra chipset.
The smartphone is also expected to pack a 7,560mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging and 27W reverse wired charging. For photography, it includes a 50-megapixel primary camera paired with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, while a 20-megapixel front camera handles selfies and video calls. Other expected features include an in-screen fingerprint scanner, dual speakers, an X-axis linear motor, an IR blaster, a metal middle frame, and IP68/IP69-rated dust and water resistance.
Reports have also suggested that Redmi could unveil the Redmi 17 alongside the Turbo 5, although the company has yet to confirm any details. Readers can visit this post to know the leaked specs of the Redmi 17.
