Redmi Note 7 Pro: Design, display
Xiaomi and Redmi have outdone themselves when it comes to the design of the Redmi Note 7 Pro. The glass back has a gradient design at the back, which Redmi is calling the Aura look and it comes in Neptune Red, Neptune Blue and a Space Black. The Red and Blue might seem to be a bit too much for people who do not like bling, but the Red does catch your eye.

Redmi Note 7 Pro has Corning Gorilla Glass 5 at the front and back, but the glass body does mean the phone will be slippery and prone to smudges. While it is looks premium, the Redmi Note 7 Pro is chunky when you hold it and it is nearly 8.1mm in thickness, though given this has a 4000 mAh battery.
Coming to the display, Redmi Note 7 Pro has a 6.3-inch full HD+ display, which has a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The bezels on the side and bottom could be thinner in my view. Redmi also says that the phone’s display works well even in bright sunlight, though we will only be able to tell that when we have the review units in hand.
Processor, RAM, storage and OS
The Redmi Note 7 Pro has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 octa-core processor with an 11nm FinFET design. It comes with the Adreno 612 GPU from Qualcomm. This was also where we saw a really aggressive Xiaomi with the company touting Antutu scores of more than 180,000, and claiming to have a much better performance than competitors like the oppo R17 Pro, which has the Snapdragon 710, and the Honor 10 Lite, which runs the Kirin 710 chipset.
The Redmi Note 7 Pro is being bundled with LPDDR4X RAM in 4GB and 6GB options coupled with 64GB
This is where the company is hedging all its bets with the Redmi Note 7 Pro. The device has a 48MP camera with the Sony IMX586 sensor, while the secondary sensor is the 5MP one. Xiaomi has also added a Night mode powered by its AI algorithms to ensure the brightest possible shots on the phone.
By default the Redmi Note 7 Pro clicks in 12MP, with the camera relying on pixel binning by combining 4-into-1 pixels to get this resolution. To click with the 48MP resolution, you need to go to the Pro mode, and on the top there is a 48MP option. Tap on that to turn it on and you will be able to click at the higher resolution.
The company is touting a very high-quality performance with the Redmi Note 7 Pro. There were camera comparisons with the iPhone XS Max, the OnePlus 6T, both of which are flagships. All claiming to show how detailed the Redmi Note 7 Pro’s 48MP camera can be, in all kinds of lighting condition.
The camera does not come with OIS though, and has EIS for video stabilization. It can also shoot at 4K at 30fps. The front camera is 13MP with AI Portrait mode, option to see Studio Lighting effect, etc.
