Redmi Note 7S with a 48 MP camera to launch at 12 pm today: How to watch the event

Following the **success of the Redmi Note 7 and the Redmi Note 7 Pro** , Xiaomi is launching yet another budget smartphone under the Note 7 series at 12 noon today — the Redmi Note 7S. Xiaomi has been teasing the launch of the Redmi Note 7S in India since last week. The company isn’t hosting a formal launch event as such for the phone but a soft launch is expected to be streamed live on a dedicated microsite for the phone on Mi.com.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 7S: All we know so far

From what has been revealed so far, the highlight of the Redmi Note 7S is said to be the presence of a 48 MP camera, similar to the one seen on the Redmi Note 7 Pro. Xiaomi India chief Manu Kumar Jain also shared a teaser holding the phone up in his hands, revealing a design language similar to the Note 7 Series. [caption id=“attachment_6208911” align=“alignnone” width=“1024”] Redmi Note 7 Pro.

There is also a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor — all of which should be familiar if you’ve seen any 2019 Redmi device. The tweet also mentions that the phone’s display will be protected by a Corning Glass Glass 5.

The feeling when you get your hands on #RedmiNote7S. 😀

I generally don't dress up like this, but posing with this amazing #48MP camera phone is special. 😇 How do you like this steaming hot Red coloured Gorilla Glass 5 back? 🔥

And of course, you can’t miss the red colour variant that the teased image shares. Xiaomi also released **initial camera samples from the Redmi Note 7S** , which reveals photo samples shot in low-light conditions and few in daylight. As per our best guesses, the Redmi Note 7S is expected to be a variant that will sit between the Redmi Note 7 and the Redmi Note 7 Pro. Meanwhile, the company has also been planning to introduce a **phone rocking a Snapdragon 730 or Snapdragon 730G chipset** in India. But we are not sure if that is the same Redmi Note 7S or is there another mid-range phone from Redmi in the pipeline.
