Xiaomi releases kernel sources for the Redmi 9/9 Prime, Redmi Note 9 4G/Redmi 9 Power, and Mi 10T Lite/Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G
Xiaomi has now released the kernel sources for the Redmi 9/POCO M2, Redmi 9 Power/Redmi Note 9 4G/POCO M3, and Mi 10T Lite/Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.
Sometimes it takes Xiaomi a long time to release the kernel source code for a device they sell, but other times it can come rather hastily. While the Chinese OEM's timeliness factor remains questionable, a kernel source release still excites the aftermarket development community, whenever it does land. And we are happy to report that a handful of new devices have had their kernel sources released, namely the Redmi 9, the Redmi 9 Power (sold as the Redmi Note 9 4G in China), and the Mi 10T Lite AKA the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.
Redmi 9 Power with 6000mAh battery, Snapdragon 662, MIUI 12 launches in India
Xiaomi sub-brand Redmi has launched the Redmi 9 Power with 6000mAh battery, Snapdragon 662, 48MP quad cameras, MIUI 12, and more in India.
The global pandemic disrupted how most smartphone brands operate. Xiaomi's spin-off brand Redmi, which has been launching two Redmi Note generations per year since 2018, could not push past launching the 9th series. While the Redmi Note 9 and the Redmi Note 9 Pro/Pro Max were launched in India and parts of Europe earlier this year, they were not launched in China. Last month, when Xiaomi did finally launch the Redmi Note 9 series in China, these devices turned out to be entirely new SKUs. Out of these new devices, the Redmi Note 9 4G (China) (codenamed lime) is now making its way to India where it will be called the Redmi 9 Power (limein). The Redmi 9 Power gets its name from the large 6,000mAh battery that powers the device.
