Xiaomi Unveils Redmi Airdots 3 Pro, Redmibook Pro Ryzen Edition

Xiaomi’s Redmi brand has launched several products at its event in China today, highlighted by the Chinese version of the Redmi Note 10Pro 5G that’s starkly different from other variants. The company also launched two more notable products, namely the Redmi Airdots 3 Pro and Redmibook Pro Ryzen Edition laptops.

Starting with the AMD-powered Redmibook Pro line, we’ve got 14-inch and 15-inch flavors packing 16GB of RAM and 512GB SSDs. The laptops also share integrated Radeon graphics as well as I/O options (two USB-C ports, a USB 2.0 port, a USB 3.2 port, a 3.5mm port, and an HDMI out). They also share a measly 720p webcam as well as Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi 6, and an integrated fingerprint scanner.

These Redmibooks mainly differ in terms of the processor, display, and battery. The 15-inch model packs either a Ryzen 5 5600H or Ryzen 7 5800H CPU, a 15.6-inch 3,200 x 2,000 screen (90Hz refresh rate, 16:10), and a 70Wh battery. Meanwhile, the 14-inch model offers either a Ryzen 5 5500U or Ryzen 7 5700U CPU, a 14-inch 2,560 x 1,600 screen (60Hz, 16:10), and a 56Wh battery.
