Dual-camera toting Xiaomi Redmi Pro coming 27 July?
Chinese juggernaut Xiaomi has announced an event for 27 July, but its latest post on Weibo may have shed more light on the unannounced wares. According to Gizmochina, Xiaomi wrote that one of the reveals will be called the Redmi Pro — previous rumours had suggested the name Xiaomi Redmi Note 4.
However, a Redmi Note 4 makes less sense, especially when the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 has been out for just over six months.
The name suggests that Xiaomi is looking to offer a device that slots in between the budget Redmi/Redmi Note line and the top-end Xiaomi Mi Note/Mi Note Pro phablets.
What are we expecting in this device?

Perhaps the most prominent leaked feature is the addition of a dual-camera setup on the back, being stacked vertically instead of horizontally.
Evidence for the stacked camera setup comes primarily from a leaked image of Chinese celeb (and new Xiaomi ambassador) Haoran Liu with what appears to be the new phone. Additionally, a few snaps of the rear cover have made their way around social media as well.
Otherwise, GeekBench tests point to a phone with a MediaTek Helio X25 deca-core processor (two ARM Cortex-A72 cores and eight A53 cores), 4GB of RAM and Android 6.0.
