The Redmi K30 5G is one of the most anticipated smartphones this month. Redmi has officially confirmed quite a number of the device’s specifications such as its screen size, battery capacity and the processor that will power it. Today, Lu Weibing took to Weibo to confirm that there will be a 4G version of the phone too.
According to the post, he said while 5G is just beginning to roll out, 5G charges by network operators are also quite expensive and not everyone can afford it. Based on that, there will also be a 4G version of the Redmi K30.
This is not new information as the specs of the 4G variant leaked last week. Nevertheless, an official confirmation is welcome.
The Redmi K30 4G is expected to come with a Snapdragon 730G processor. Its display will also be a 6.66-inch LCD panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 1080 x 2400 resolution. The leaked live photos showed that it will have 64GB of storage and run MIUI 11 out of the box.
A leak revealed the phone will have a 64MP main camera along with an 8MP telephoto camera, a 13MP ultrawide camera, and a 2MP sensor. It also said it will pack a 4500mAh battery with support for 27W fast charging. The 5G version has the same battery capacity but with 30W fast charging that Redmi says can charge the phone from empty to full in 1 hour.
The Redmi K30 4G is also rumored to have 20MP + 2MP dual front-facing cameras, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, NFC, IR blaster, and an audio jack. Its starting price is put at ¥1999 (~$285).
