Redmi Note 7 Pro, which by the admission of the Chinese company itself will never reach the European market, represents a fair step forward compared to Redmi Note 7 thanks to the adoption of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 platform.
Built using an 11-nanometer production process, the Snapdragon 675 CPU uses the new Kryo 460 cores, used by Qualcomm also on Snapdragon 855, the current flagship of the Californian company. The difference in performance compared to the Snapdragon 660 platform used on Redmi Note 7 is clearly evident in the benchmarks carried out on Geekbench: we are talking about 50% more in single core mode.
The figure is even more impressive when compared to the results obtained by Snapdragon 845, barely higher than the Snapdragon 675. Less impressive, but equally valid, is the score obtained on AnTuTu, where Redmi Note 7 Pro scored just over 185,000 points .
It's a shame, therefore, that Xiaomi has decided to reserve this little gem, equipped among other things with a 48-megapixel Sony sensor, only for the Asian market, in particular the Chinese and Indian markets. In Italy we can still console with Redmi Note 7, one of the best smartphones in its price range.
Meanwhile, modding enthusiasts, or those users who prefer Android stock at the MIIA Xiaomi interface, can rejoice in the release of the Redmi Note 7 Pro kernel source code, which will allow the development of custom AOSP-based ROMs. If you have the appropriate skills you can download the source code from this address and start working on new projects.
