New Xiaomi POCO and Redmi smartphones leak with global and Indian releases on the horizon
A while has now passed since details about the POCO M7 Pro 5G leaked online. Since then, Xiaomi has kicked off the Redmi Note 14 series, which currently consists of the Redmi Note 14 5G, Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 14 Pro Plus 5G. However, there is now evidence that the company could soon release the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G, which would likely be joined by a Redmi Note 14 4G, too.
Now, Gizmochina has unearthed information about two even cheaper options that will sit under Xiaomi's POCO and Redmi series. Specifically, the website has found multiple references on IMEI databases to the POCO M7 4G and Redmi 14 4G, evidence of which we have embedded below. As usual, the IMEI results do not confirm many details about either device.
Instead, they link model numbers to retail names. In this case, the Redmi 14 4G and POCO M7 4G should eventually launch with the following model numbers:
- POCO M7 4G
- 25028PC03G, 25028PC03I, 25028PC03Y
- Redmi 14 4G
- 25028RN03A, 25028RN03L, 25028RN03I, 25028RN03Y
According to Gizmochina, 'A' in 25028RN03A stands a non-NFC version of the POCO M7 4G. Meanwhile, 'Y' should relate to a global version with NFC. Please note that this is not necessarily an exhaustive list of POCO M7 4G and Redmi 14 4G. At any rate, all variants should debut from February 2025 onwards, which Gizmochina speculates will occur in Q2 2025 to replace both the POCO M6 4G and Redmi 13 4G (curr. $175 on Amazon). Unfortunately, specifications for both devices remain unknown for now, although their model numbers suggest they rely on the same underlying development device.
