Xiaomi is rumoured to be working on a new laptop, which it will be launching under its Redmi sub-brand, dubbed the Redmi Book 14 in China. The company is expected to launch the laptop alongside its upcoming flagship smartphone the Redmi K20.
To recall, the company currently has a number of laptops that it sells in China under its Mi lineup of devices. However, this will be the company’s first time releasing a laptop under its Redmi lineup of devices.
Considering that Xiaomi prices all of its products under its Redmi sub-brand reasonably, we can expect the RedmiBook 14 to be priced in a similar manner. However, we can’t say much as of now, as the company hasn’t said anything regarding the new device.
The device recently showed up on Bluetooth SIG’s website confirming the existence of the product. According to the listing, the device will come with Bluetooth 4.0 support.
