POCO has started teasing the M4 Pro 5G, its next mid-range smartphone. However, it turns out that the POCO M4 Pro 5G will be another re-brand, with the device the global version of the Redmi Note 11. Meanwhile, Xiaomi will release the Redmi Note 11 as the Redmi Note 11T 5G in India.

Xiaomi has already confirmed that it will be launching the POCO M4 Pro 5G this month. The M4 Pro 5G will arrive on November 9 at 12:00 UTC, ahead of which POCO has confirmed that the device will feature a 6 nm SoC and 33 W fast charging.

If those specifications sound similar, it may be because the POCO M4 Pro 5G is a re-branded Redmi Note 11. MIUI already reflects this, with Xiaomi including strings linking the POCO M4 Pro 5G to 'evergreen', the device's codename. For reference, Xiaomi assigned 'evergo' to the Redmi Note 11.

Incidentally, MIUI also contains strings for 'evergoin', the Indian version of 'evergo'. As the screenshot below shows, the marketing name of 'evergoin' is Redmi Note 11T 5G, so this should arrive in India before too long. Redmi India has not started teasing the Redmi Note 11T 5G yet, though.

Hence, the POCO M4 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 11T 5G will arrive with a MediaTek Dimensity 810 SoC, a 5,000 mAh battery and a 6.6-inch IPS display. The latter peaks at 90 Hz and operates at 2,400 x 1,080 pixels in a 20:9 aspect ratio. Additionally, the pair will contain two rear-facing cameras with a 50 MP sensor serving as their primary cameras.
