Alongside the Turbo 5 Max, Redmi also introduced the standard Turbo 5, which features a slightly smaller battery and MediaTek’s new Dimensity 8500-Ultra chipset.
The Turbo 5 is the first smartphone globally to debut the Dimensity 8500-Ultra SoC. It comes equipped with LPDDR5 Ultra RAM, UFS 4.1 storage, and the same vapor chamber cooling system used in the Max model, ensuring stable performance under heavy workloads.
On the front, the Turbo 5 sports a 6.59-inch AMOLED display—slightly smaller than the Max variant. The panel supports a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution, 3,500 nits peak brightness, and is a 12-bit display with HDR10+ and Dolby Vision capabilities.
Powering the device is a 7,560mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging and 27W reverse wired charging, matching the charging speeds of the Turbo 5 Max.
