Redmi Turbo 5 Max teased, should arrive later this month

"This year we expect no less than three Turbo models on the way and the new addition may come first - Xiaomi posted a teaser for the Turbo 5 Max. The Max will be the fastest phone with the best battery in the CNY 2,500 price segment, says Xiaomi. This converts to $360/€305/₹32,500, though as always, keep in mind that global prices tend to be higher than a simple currency conversion would suggest."

"Previously, we heard that the Redmi Turbo 5 will feature a Dimensity 8500, while the Turbo 5 Pro will use a Dimensity 9500e (supposedly a lower bin version of the 9500, though see below). Pro will have 100W charging, according to data from the 3C. It is said to have a 1.5K LTPS OLED display and an ultrasonic fingerprint reader."

"@DigitalChatStation reports that the new series will debut this month. The Redmi Turbo 5 Max will allegedly have a "Dimensity 9500s" chipset, which will be a variant of the 9400+. There may have been some mix-up with the naming - last year, the Dimensity 9400e was a rebadged 9300+, so the 9500e should be based on the 9400+. Not that chipset names follow any logic."

Xiaomi followed the Redmi Turbo 4 and Turbo 4 Pro with teasers for a three-model Turbo 5 lineup, including the Turbo 5 Max. The Turbo 5 Max is positioned as the fastest phone with the best battery in the CNY 2,500 price range (about $360/€305/₹32,500). Unofficial details indicate metal frames, large displays, and MediaTek Dimensity 8- and 9-series chips across the series. Rumors suggest the Turbo 5 will use a Dimensity 8500, while the Turbo 5 Pro may use a Dimensity 9500e with 100W charging, a 1.5K LTPS OLED, and an ultrasonic fingerprint reader. Chipset naming appears inconsistent, and the Pro could see international rebranding.
