Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 launched: How would you like a 48MP camera for $150?

Xiaomi announced that the Redmi range would be a sub-brand earlier this month, and we've now got the first device as part of the new arrangement. Say hello to the Redmi Note 7.

True to previous teases, you're getting a device with a glass back and gradient color schemes. But there's more to the phone than a premium design.

The star of the show is arguably the rear camera setup, consisting of a 48MP f/1.8 main camera (Samsung GM1, 0.8 micron pixels) and a 5MP secondary shooter. The company confirmed that the main camera is able to make use of pixel-binning to take better shots, albeit at a 12MP resolution.

The Redmi Note 7 is powered by a Snapdragon 660 chipset, which isn't the latest 600 series processor but still pretty powerful for a budget device. You can also expect a 4,000mAh battery, much like previous Redmi Note devices.

Other noteworthy specs include a 6.3-inch full HD+ display with a waterdrop notch, USB Type-C connectivity, 18 watt wired charging, an IR blaster, and a headphone jack.

But the best thing about the phone has to be the price, starting at just 999 yuan (~$147) for the 3GB/32GB model. You've also got a 4GB/64GB variant for 1,199 yuan (~$177), and a 6GB/64GB model for 1,399 yuan (~$206). Could this be the cheapest 48MP smartphone on the market for the next few months? I wouldn't bet against the company.
