For the processor bit, the Redmi Pro 2 would in fact be powered by an octa-core MediaTek’s Helio P25 chipset having one quartet of Cortex-A53 cores clocking in with a maximum frequency of 2.5GHz and the other one with a maximum limit of 1.6GHz.

Earlier, it was being claimed that the phone will have a Snapdragon 660, but for now, the MediaTek one seems to have taken over the mantle, which will also have an ARM Mali-T880MP4 GPU for support.

Just to keep you in the loop, the all new Redmi Pro 2 is likely to be unveiled within this month only, in two variants differing in RAMs as well as storage capacities (4GB and 64GB and 6GB and 128GB respectively).
