[Representational Image] Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 image leaks ahead of launch: All you need to know about the feature-rich Android phone. In Picture: Xiaomi Redmi Note 4

Redmi Note 5’s promotional image has been leaked online a day ahead of Xiaomi’s first product launch event in India in 2018. It reveals key design features.

Mobile Expose blog has got their hands on the elusive Redmi Note 5 photo, which shows dual-camera on the back and a fingerprint sensor, clearly indicating that the device is not the rebranded Redmi 5 Plus, as previously thought.

On the front, the Redmi Note 5 flaunts the FullView screen with 18:9 aspect ratio and houses camera on the left side of the centre earpiece and a couple of sensor to the right.

The front-side of the image matches the device teased by Xiaomi, but there are no official details on how the rear-side looks. But, reliable reports have indicated that Redmi Note 5 will indeed come with a dual-camera to differentiate itself from the Redmi 5 (and 5 Plus) series and also its predecessor Redmi Note 4, as it would be unwise for the company to same single camera setup in a new phone with just a change in display design. It will be like selling old wine in a new bottle, and will certainly backfire in an intensely fought mid-range smartphone market like India.
