The Redmi Turbo 5 series has been officially launched in China today, January 29, 2026, with the Redmi Turbo 5 Max and the Redmi Turbo 5 taking centre stage as the performance powerhouses of the mid-range segment. Although the series was first launched in China, it is expected to arrive in India soon, possibly under the Poco X8 series.
While official India pricing will be revealed at the local launch, the China pricing gives us a very clear estimate:

Redmi Turbo 5 |
~2,000 Yuan |
₹24,999 – ₹27,999 |
Redmi Turbo 5 Max |
