The good old Redmi Turbo 4

These filings never tell the full story, yet they matter. When a Xiaomi phone shows up at MIIT, the project’s already moving fast — that’s the last pit stop before mass production. Going by the usual pace, the launch could happen before year’s end.
For context, the Redmi Turbo 4 landed in January 2025. It had a 6.67-inch flat 1.5 K panel, the Dimensity 8400-Ultra chip, and a 6 550 mAh battery with 90 W fast charge. It looked sharp for its price, with that split-texture back and the tidy metal camera ring. People liked it because it felt pricier than it was.

If Xiaomi repeats that formula, the Turbo 5 should bring a little more battery life, smoother performance, and maybe a touch more polish. Nothing wild — just a practical step up. The brand usually keeps things real: quick chip, solid endurance, and value that holds.
No posters, no teaser yet — just this quiet certification trail. Give it a few weeks and we’ll likely start seeing leaks: a benchmark here, a blurry photo there. The Turbo series has built a reputation for honest speed at a decent price, and from how it’s shaping up, the Turbo 5 might just keep that streak going.
