Redmi and Black Shark are working on 5G phones
Xiaomi’s first 5G phone – the Mi Mix 3 5G – will soon be available in Europe and China. Meanwhile, the company’s sub-brands Redmi and Black Shark are preparing to launch 5G-connected phones of their own.
Lu Weibing, who’s attending MWC Shanghai, posted on Weibo “5G is coming”. He says that by the end of next year there will be 5G phones costing less than CNY 2,000 – that’s about $300/€260, not including taxes.
His colleague from Black Shark posted that the R&D team has been preparing for the arrival of the next-gen wireless network and a Black Shark 5G phone will be released in the future. Neither committed to a launch date.
