The Redmi Turbo 5 only recently arrived in India, bringing a 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED display and the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Ultra chipset. While the device is still fresh on the market, attention is already shifting toward its possible successor. According to a new leak, Xiaomi’s Redmi brand is preparing to expand the Turbo lineup with the Redmi Turbo 6 Max, which could make its debut in China early next year.
The latest information comes from well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, who shared the alleged launch timeline and key specifications of an upcoming Redmi performance smartphone on Weibo. Although the post does not explicitly mention the device’s name, the details and accompanying discussion strongly suggest it refers to the Redmi Turbo 6 Max. If the leak proves accurate, the smartphone is expected to launch in January.
One of the most notable rumored upgrades is its display. The Redmi Turbo 6 Max is tipped to feature a massive 7-inch flat screen with a sharp 2K resolution, making it one of the largest displays in Redmi’s smartphone portfolio. Under the hood, the handset is expected to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9000-series processor, though the exact chipset has not yet been revealed.
Battery life could be another standout feature of the upcoming device. The leak claims the Redmi Turbo 6 Max will pack a “massive” battery, with speculation pointing to a capacity of around 10,000mAh. If accurate, this would make it one of the largest batteries ever fitted into a mainstream smartphone, potentially offering exceptional endurance for gaming, media consumption, and everyday use. As always, these details remain unofficial until Xiaomi confirms the device.
