The Xiaomi Redmi 3 may be still respawning into different flavors such as Redmi 3S, Redmi 3 Pro and Redmi 3X, but it seems the company is already working on its official successor.
Xiaomi Redmi 4 was found recently inside the GeekBench results database and we can now shed some light on its specs. Contradicting the previous reports for Helio X20 chip, the Redmi 4 to pass the GeekBench test ran on Snapdragon 625 chip.
The Snapdragon 625 platform is somewhat of a direct successor to the 616 SoC powering the Redmi 3. It employs an octa-core Cortex-A53 processor clocked at 2GHz and a new Adreno 506 GPU. While the CPU A53 cores are of the same generation, the much higher CPU clock will surely make a difference. The LTE Cat.7 connectivity is also an upgrade over the Cat.4.
The Redmi 4 to pass through GeekBench featured 3GB RAM and running on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow. Here is how it stacks against other siblings:
GeekBench 3 (multi-core)
Higher is better
- Xiaomi Redmi 4 (S625)4751
- Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (Helio X10)4537
- Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (S650)3695
- Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro (S616)2874
- Xiaomi Redmi 3 (S616)2842
- Xiaomi Redmi 2 (S410)1460
GeekBench 3 (single-core)
Higher is better
- Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (S650)1543
- Xiaomi Redmi 4 (S625)929
- Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro (S616)655
Indeed, there is quite a performance jump over the Redmi 3 and Redmi 3 Pro, as we suspected.
The Redmi 4 is expected to launch by the end of the year at about $150.
