Xiaomi appears to be moving closer to launching the REDMI Turbo 5 series. A new Xiaomi phone, listed under the model number 2602BRT18C, has cleared radio certification in China, a step that usually points to an upcoming launch.

According to Weibo tipster Smart Pikachu, the certified device belongs to the REDMI Turbo 5 lineup and is likely the REDMI Turbo 5 Pro. While Xiaomi has not confirmed the model yet, certification activity suggests launch preparations are already underway.

The REDMI Turbo 5 series is expected to include two models: the standard Turbo 5 and Turbo 5 Pro. The base model received its approval back in October. The reported Turbo 5 series launch window falls around January or February, ahead of the Chinese Spring Festival. @DigitalChatStation has also said that the Turbo 5 Pro is expected to arrive before the holiday.

As per @DigitalChatStation, this generation of the Turbo series is being positioned more aggressively than before. The Turbo 5 Pro is said to feature a flagship-class chipset, along with custom performance tuning. The phone is also tipped to include the largest battery in its segment, paired with 100W fast charging.

Additional leaked details point to a metal frame. Other reported features include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, full water resistance, and symmetrical stereo speakers. The overall design is said to lean toward a clean, minimal look.

For comparison, the previous REDMI Turbo 4 Pro was the first smartphone to launch with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. It featured a 6.83-inch 1.5K flat display, a 50MP + 8MP rear camera setup, and support for 90W wired charging with 22.5W reverse charging.

More details about the REDMI Turbo 5 series are expected to surface in the coming weeks.

Redmi Note 15 5G teased: What to expect?

Xiaomi plans to release the Redmi Note 15 5G in the Indian market on 6th January 2026. But ahead of the official release, the device had some of its key specs revealed. The Chinese tech giant confirmed the new 108 MasterPixel camera in the previous teaser, which was showcased again. Unlike the 50MP camera in the Chinese variant, the global version has a higher resolution 108MP shooter.

The sensor will offer OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), 4K video recording, and it was even teased as a multifocal portrait legend. Apart from this, Xiaomi also claimed that the smartphone will bring a long battery life thanks to its 5,520mAh battery pack, which promises up to 1.6 days of usage and up to 5 years of total battery lifespan. The Redmi Note 15 5G supports 45W wired fast charging.

This appears quite similar to the specs of the Note 15 5G model that debuted in the European market. To recall, this model features Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 SoC under the hood, sports a tall 6.77-inch AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and an IP65 rating for water and dust resistance.
