Redmi 7S showed off by Xiaomi India MD ahead of May 20 launch.

The smartphone is seen with a dual-rear camera setup and in a red colour variant.

The Redmi 7A has also popped up on TENAA as well.

Redmi is gearing up to launch its Redmi 7S smartphone in India on May 20. Ahead of the official unveiling, the company’s Global VP and India MD, Manu Jain, has posted an image of the phone, showing off its design from the back. However, we have a hunch that the company is rebranding the Redmi Note 7 that was launched in China as the Redmi 7S for India. In a separate development, a new Redmi phone has popped up on TENAA. The Redmi 7A was spotted on online with model number M1903C3EC and it is expected to be launched soon in China as the successor to the Redmi 6A.

Starting with the upcoming Redmi 7S, the handset is shown off in a red colour variant. It can be seen featuring a dual-rear camera setup and a fingerprint sensor. The phone is confirmed to come equipped with a 48MP camera but the company has not revealed which sensor it uses. Our guess is that it is equipped with the Samsung GM1 48MP sensor, which is present on the Chinese version of the Redmi Note 7. The Redmi Note 7 Pro in India features a 48MP Sony IMX586 sensor, while the standard Redmi Note 7 is equipped with a 12MP + 2MP camera setup.

The feeling when you get your hands on #RedmiNote7S.

I generally don't dress up like this, but posing with this amazing #48MP camera phone is special. How do you like this steaming hot Red coloured Gorilla Glass 5 back?
