About Xiaomi Redmi Note 5

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 features a 5.99‑inch IPS TFT LCD screen that delivers a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 by 2160 pixels, offering sharp visuals for everyday use. Running on Android 7.1.2 Nougat and equipped with 3 GB of RAM, the device provides a smooth experience for apps and multitasking. Its colourful display and capable internals position it as a solid mid‑range option for users seeking reliable performance.

Measuring 75.45 mm wide, 158.5 mm tall and just 8.05 mm thick, the phone feels compact despite its large screen, and it weighs in at 180 grams. A 4000 mAh battery powers the handset, aiming to keep you going through a full day of typical usage. Connectivity is handled via a single SIM slot, keeping the design straightforward while still supporting essential mobile functions.

This variant

This variant is marketed as the Premium Edition for the global market, unlike the China‑ and India‑focused models in the list. It ships with Android (the specific version is not detailed) rather than the Android 7.1.2 Nougat found on the base Redmi Note 5, and it offers 64 GB of internal storage.

Compared with the other listed variants, this model remains a single‑SIM device while all the alternatives provide dual‑SIM capability. Its 64 GB storage matches only the higher‑capacity China and India editions and exceeds the 32 GB standard editions, and its global release distinguishes it from the region‑specific counterparts.
