REDMI Turbo 5 in Asphalt Black — front view
The REDMI Turbo 5 pairs the Dimensity 8500 Ultra with a 7540mAh battery and 100W HyperCharge in a compact 6.59-inch body — a performance-focused phone that refuses to be judged by its price tag.
The REDMI Turbo 5 is what happens when REDMI builds a phone for enthusiasts instead of spec-chasers. The Dimensity 8500 Ultra delivers genuinely fast performance, the 7540mAh battery is an absolute marathon runner, and 100W HyperCharge takes it from zero to full in well under an hour. The compact 6.59-inch body is a welcome change from the giant slabs in this price range — it is comfortable in one hand and the 120Hz AMOLED display is bright and crisp. The camera is solid in daylight and the design, in Asphalt Black, is understated and classy. It is not the cheapest phone in the bracket, and the camera does not match the very best at the price, but if performance and battery are what you want in a phone that still fits in your hand, the Turbo 5 is an outstanding pick.
