Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 for smooth daily use

Redmi 7 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 Mobile Platform. This chipset features the Qualcomm® Kryo™ 250 Octa-core CPU, which consists of four performance and four power-saving cores. This gives a significant boost in performance compared to smartphones in this price range, which typically use processors sporting eight power-saving cores. Redmi 7 is designed to support fluid gaming and a great experience for daily use.

Dot Drop Design and AI dual camera setup

Featuring a 6.26″ HD+ Dot Drop display, Redmi 7 has 4-sided curved gradient design with reduced bezels that comes in three colors: Comet Blue, Lunar Red, and Eclipse Black. The large LCD display with 19:9 aspect ratio allows for an immersive gaming and video experience. The display is also TÜV Rheinland certified – by turning on reading mode, it will provide protection against blue light and reduce the likeliness of visual fatigue. In order to ensure durability, Redmi 7 uses Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 for its front display.

Redmi 7’s 12MP rear camera has a sensor with 1.25?m pixels that produces higher quality images than other products in the same price range. The 8MP front camera supports using hand gestures for selfies.

Prolonged standby time and enhanced sound quality

With an upgraded 4000mAh battery and system optimizations, Redmi 7 has a standby time of up to 400 hours. Redmi 7 produces better sound quality and offers an increase in volume to ensure clarity during media playback and in calls by using a larger speaker than its predecessor.
