| Now better than ever? |
The new Redmi Note 5 Pro still has the same 5.99-inch FHD+ 18:9 screen, but not has better cameras, USB Type-C connection (instead of micro USB), and A.I.
In particular, Xiaomi replaced the 12MP f/2.2 lens of the Indian Redmi Note 5 Pro to the brighter f/1.9 lens. Xiaomi also added a Dual Pixel PDAF focus system for faster and more accurate focus.
For selfies, the 20MP selfie camera of the Indian variant has been replaced with a 13MP sensor. But, it is now A.I. powered. It now has portrait mode, beauty mode, and face unlock improved the power of artificial intelligence.
The new Redmi Note 5 Pro also has the speedier Qualcom Quick Charge 3.0 (instead of 2.0) and Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box with Project Treble (instead of Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS).
