In a recent development, a Weibo post has confirmed Xiaomi’s plans to expand its Redmi lineup with the launch of a new device – Xiaomi Redmi Pro. The company is all set to reveal its upcoming Redmi Pro at an event in Beijing on July 27.

However, it’s probably the first time Xiaomi has decided to get rid of numbers and simply stick to a simple name. Some experts believe it’s the Redmi Note 4 along with Xiaomi’s unexpected change to its naming convention. Xiaomi’s Redmi lineup is best known for sitting comfortably in the mid-range segment.

It’s essentially what led us to wonder (like many) what exactly “pro” means to the company. While it’s unclear whether Xiaomi is aiming at better specs or more cost, the company is expected to not make any drastic changes to its cost-effective solutions.

Redmi Pro will reportedly arrive in two variants. While a base model may run on the Helio X20 MT6797M chipset clocked at 2 GHz with 3 GB of RAM, another variant may run on the MediaTek Helio X25 MT6797T clocked at 2.5 GHz with 4 GB of RAM.
