SoC seems good to me but the screen size though. With that size, they probably make it wider or longer. The latter seems more realistic. Why can't they just retain the original screen size while reducing the phone size in overall? I wished they did that. And full hd.
From now on all phones will be 18:9, 16:9 will be hard to sell. You compare them side by side at shops then you'll understand.
Just check the dimensions. From personal experience smaller battery same weight will feel lighter.
Redmi 5 151.8 x 72.8 x 7.7 mm, and it weighs 157g
Redmi 4x 139.2 x 70 x 8.7 mm 150g
Redmi note 4 151 x 76 x 8.5 mm 165 g
Also if they don't raise price, can get bezelless, you want full hd some more?

That vivo v7 priced at 1k+, if I have to make a guess redmi internals will be using similar to that except for camera.
