Before this Geekbench listing, this same model number was earlier seen on the 3C certification, which revealed 100W fast charging support.

So far, Redmi has only teased the launch and features of the Redmi Turbo 5 Max, and if it will launch the Redmi Turbo 5 as well, then we can expect the teasers to land on Weibo soon as well.
At the Redmi Turbo 5 Max launch, which is still not announced yet, Redmi Pad 2 Pro and Redmi Buds 8 Pro are also expected to launch during the same launch event.
