Xiaomi's Redmi Pro a great Camera Phone: Price, Full Specification and Much More

 After Huawei's P9, and also in 2014's HTC One M8, Xiaomi said yes to the dual camera feature for their Smartphone.

What's interesting here is that the lenses aren't same. You have a 13-megapixel Sony sensor and a 5-megapixel Samsung sensor. The Redmi Pro combines image data from both cameras to let users adjust the depth of field they get, so they have a chance to play around with the amount of blur. The effect works best when shooting portraits and close-ups, setups where you want the focus on what's in front of you.

True to its name, the Pro steps up the hardware specs compared with the other Redmi phones. It has a metal body, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of onboard storage and MediaTek's Helio X25 ten-core processor. There's 4G LTE support for two SIM cards, but you could also use one SIM card and insert a micro-SIM card. There's a fingerprint sensor too, located below the 5.5-inch full-HD OLED display.

A basic version of Pro will sport 3GB RAM and 32GB of onboard storage and will use the Helio X20 processor instead.

The phone is set to launch on August 6 and will retail from a ridiculously low price of 1,499 yuan (this converts to around $225, £170 and AU$300), while the highest end version goes for 1,999 yuan (about $300, £230 or AU$400). Interestingly, it will also be sold offline at retail stores as well as Xiaomi's normal online model. While it's only China for now, but it is expected to see the company launches the phone in markets like India, Hong Kong and Singapore shortly after.
