The RedmiBook will come in Charcoal Grey colour option which should be a welcome change after as most laptops these days come in Silver colour option.

RedmiBook: What we want to see
Backlit keyboard
The Mi NoteBook series had got most things right in its first attempt, but it did miss out on a backlit keyboard. With the RedmiBook, we would like to see a backlit keyboard which is helpful for most people after sunset.
Fast charging
Fast charging is always handy and especially on laptops, it will be very helpful for long working hours. It will also come in handy when people are on the go.
Intel Evo certification
Intel Evo platform laptops are verified by Intel for real-life world performance and have gone through multiple testing and validation during the design stage. Currently, in India, we have only a handful of laptops and we’d like to see RedmiBook being added to the list.
