Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 briefly appears on JD.com

The Redmi Note 5 is quite different from the Note 5A. It will have an 18:9 screen (1,080 x 2,160px) and dual cameras on the back. It could be powered by the capable Snapdragon 660 chipset to boot.
The page on JD.com has since been taken down and Xiaomi is yet to kick off a teaser campaign for the phone.
