The Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 was launched in India amid great fanfare, thanks to the popularity of the Redmi Note 4. The device has a better design and improved cameras but, other than that, it isn’t the most significant upgrade over its predecessor.

Under the hood, the Redmi Note 5 has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chipset, 2.0GHz octa-core processor, Adreno 506 GPU, 3GB or 4GB of RAM, and 32GB or 64GB of onboard storage which will be expandable via microSD card.
The device has a 12MP primary camera with an f/2.2 aperture and a 5MP secondary camera with Beautify 3.0 software.
