MediaTek has unveiled its latest upper-midrange chipset, the Dimensity 8400, marking a significant leap in Android smartphone performance. As the first all big core CPU in the upper-midrange segment, this chipset borrows the groundbreaking design from the flagship Dimensity 9300, launched last year.
In a bold move, Redmi has confirmed that its upcoming Turbo 4 will be the first device powered by the new Dimensity 8400-Ultra, a customized variant created in collaboration with Xiaomi.

The Redmi Turbo 4 is set to make its debut as the first smartphone launch of 2025, with the official unveiling expected in early January. Adding to the excitement, blind pre-reservations have already begun in China, giving fans an opportunity to secure the device ahead of its formal launch.
Globally, the Redmi Turbo 4 will be rebranded for international markets, either as the Poco F7 or the Poco X7 Pro, though final confirmation is awaited. Regardless of its name, the Dimensity 8400-powered device will bring its upper-midrange performance to users outside of China.
