The RedMi Pro: Xiaomi's first dual-camera smartphone
Looks like the next evolution of mobile phone camera's is the dual-camera setup. Sony was the first to announce this and alluded to it in February of this year. Xiaomi is one of the first manufacturers that has gone down this new path with the introduction of their RedMi Pro, its first smartphone with a dual-camera setup. The RedMi Pro features a 13MP Sony IMX258 sensor along with a 5MP Samsung sensor on the rear of the device, which Xiaomi says will produce DSLR-quality photos.

The RedMi Pro is also the first Xiaomi smartphone display to use an OLED display. For a device that comes in under $300, the RedMi Pro is jammed full of some impressive stats:
MediaTek Helio X25 deca-core processor (X20 on the base model)
5.5-inch 1080p OLED display
up to 128GB of storage
up to 4GB of RAM
