A XiaomiTime report says that the Redmi A5 and Poco C71 will likely be powered by the Unisoc T615 chipset. The handsets reportedly carry the model number C3Z. In select global markets outside of India, the Redmi A5 is tipped to launch as Poco C71. The report notes that the "Mi code" shows “C3Z = UMS9230E,” which suggests that the phones will carry the Unisoc T615 chipset.
The Unisoc T615 SoC includes two ARM Cortex-A75 cores, six Cortex-A55 cores, and an ARM Mali-G57 MP1 GPU. It supports LPDDR4x memory as well as both eMMC5.1 and UFS2.2 storage. It is the same processor that the Tecno Spark Go 1 launched with, in August 2024.
