Previous leaks claimed that the Redmi Turbo 5 series would launch alongside the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. The Turbo 5 family is tipped to feature MediaTek Dimensity chipsets. Redmi is rumoured to use the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 for the Turbo 5 and the MediaTek Dimensity 9500e for the Turbo 5 Pro. Both chipsets are yet to be officially announced by MediaTek.
