Redmi General Manager Lu Weibing has refuted rumors that the company’s flagship phone won’t be called Redmi X and it will be arriving with a better name. Since then, the rumor mill has claimed that it could be called Redmi K20 Pro or P20 Pro or X20 Pro. While the real moniker is still under the wraps, Lu Weibing is busy teasing on its features.
