Redmi 7 & Redmi 7 Pro

Xiaomi generally refreshes its low budget Redmi series every 6-8 months. The last device from this series was the Redmi 6 which was launched back in June. These upcoming devices will be the successor to the Redmi 6 series and will fall around the same price bracket as the last one.
