Rumors are swirling about Xiaomi’s next flagship killer, the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, which insiders claim could be a near-identical sibling to the upcoming Poco F7. Fresh leaks suggest the device will pack a jaw-dropping 7,500 mAh battery and Qualcomm’s unannounced Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, positioning it as a potential game-changer in the mid-range segment.
According to a detailed report by GSMGO Tech (source: GSMGO Tech), the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro’s massive 7,500 mAh battery would dwarf most competitors, offering up to two days of heavy usage on a single charge. This aligns with Xiaomi’s recent push for marathon-endurance devices, though the inclusion of such a large cell raises questions about weight and thickness. Meanwhile, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4—a rumored trimmed-down variant of the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 4—is expected to deliver flagship-tier performance at a lower cost, making the Turbo 4 Pro a potential performance beast.
Design and Display: A Poco F7 Lookalike?
Leaked images from Chinese social platform Weibo (via this post) reveal a design strikingly similar to the Poco F7, with a flat-edge frame, centered punch-hole display, and a vertically aligned triple-camera setup. Speculation suggests both devices could share internal hardware, following Xiaomi’s strategy of rebranding Redmi phones under the Poco lineup in global markets. The Turbo 4 Pro is tipped to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Dolby Vision support.
More Rumored Specs
- Camera: A 200MP primary sensor (likely the Samsung HP3) paired with an 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro lens.
- Software: HyperOS-based Android 15 out of the box.
- Charging: 90W wired fast charging, though wireless charging may be omitted to cut costs.
Pricing and Availability
If leaks hold true, the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro could launch in China by late Q1 2025, priced aggressively around ¥2,499 (~$345). Global markets may see it rebranded as the Poco F7 Pro, with slight tweaks to regional bands and software.

The Bottom Line
The Redmi Turbo 4 Pro appears poised to blur the lines between mid-range affordability and flagship specs. While the 7,500 mAh battery and Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 combo sounds tantalizing, skeptics warn that thermal management and weight could be trade-offs. As always, take leaks with a grain of salt—but if Xiaomi delivers, the Turbo 4 Pro might just redefine expectations for budget flagships.
