New evidence obtained from the Mi community suggests that Xiaomi might be gearing up to launch the Redmi Note 5 in India next month. Xiaomi has a big fan following in India. Hence, the brand runs an explorer program to test drive new Redmi Note devices in the country. They did it with the Redmi Note 3, and with the Redmi Note 4 as well. This usually happens before an official launch.
