While the company has previously released theRedmi 5 and Redmi 5 Plus, the fans are now waiting for the release of the company’s next phone. WhileMi 7, the next flagship is what most people are waiting for, it seems that their next budget device, the Redmi Note 5, might have been leaked, thanks to the recent reports.

Recent renders posted onTargetYouTube, showcase abezel-less display on the purported smartphone complete with a dual-camera setup.If these renders are to be believed, then the Redmi Note 5 is said to sport an 18:9 display coupled with minute top and bottom bezels. At the rear of the smartphone is the dual-camera module placed vertically, followed by the LED flash and a fingerprint sensor.

Considering the overall look of the device, the render of the Redmi Note 5 makes it look like ahybrid of the Mi Mix 2 and the Samsung Galaxy S8. While the rear design is similar to the former flagship of Xiaomi, the front looks as appealing as sported by the Galaxy S8.

As far as specifications are concerned, it is expected to pack a5.99-inch IPS LCD display with full HD+ (2160 x 1080) resolution.Under the hood, Xiaomi is expected to finally switch from the Snapdragon 625 and will be sporting theQualcomm Snapdragon 636 SoCwhich will be paired with either 3GB or 4GB RAM with 64GB of internal storage.

The previous leaks about the camera fall in line with the aforementioned renders, suggesting that the device will be sporting a dual-camera setup with a combination of a16-megapixel sensor with a 5-megapixel depth sensor for DSLR-like bokeh effect.The device is most likely to come with a 4,100mAh battery with support for Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 4.0. While there is no word on the pricing either, we expect the device to bepriced around the Rs. 15,000 markand could be available in achoice of three colors – grey, black, and blue.
