It looks like Redmi is planning a new budget series, at least in China. A new Redmi phone from a brand-new “R” lineup has appeared in China Telecom’s product database, revealing its images and specifications. Interestingly, the listing suggests the device could go by either Redmi R70m 5G or simply Redmi R70.

According to the listing, the phone will be available in five memory configurations: 4GB + 128GB, 6GB + 128GB, 6GB + 256GB, 8GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 256GB. Meanwhile, the color options include Starry Night Black, Feather White, Cold Mist Blue, and Feather Purple.

Redmi R70m / R70 Specifications

On the hardware side, the phone features a large 6.9-inch display with a waterdrop notch. The resolution sits at 1600 × 720, which is just HD+.

As for the design, the phone has a flat, right-angled frame, with a 3.5mm headphone jack, speaker grille, and USB-C port on the bottom edge.

Camera hardware also stays on the basic side. There’s an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, paired with a dual-camera setup on the back. The main sensor is 13 megapixels, paired with a secondary 8MP lens.

Internally, the device is powered by a chipset labeled UMS9632. That is an Unisoc platform, which typically shows up in affordable devices rather than performance-focused ones. The phone runs Android 16 out of the box.

The Redmi R70m packs a 6300mAh battery inside a body measuring 171.56 × 79.47 × 8.2mm and weighing around 211.5 grams.

There’s still no official word on pricing or availability. But based on the specifications, the Redmi R70 series looks like another addition to Xiaomi’s growing portfolio of budget 5G phones.
