Xiaomi launched the Redmi K30 5G and 4G models in December last year and the models only went on sale this January. The models were premium mid-rangers with the 5G version packing a 5G-enabled Snapdragon 765G chipset while the 4G version features a Snapdragon 730G SoC. Redmi was expected to launch a K30 Pro in China having a flagship specs lineup including the latest Snapdragon 865 SoC. The Xiaomi Redmi K30 Pro has now appeared on the website of benchmarking outfit GeekBench.

The GeekBench listing shows the device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset just as expected. However, the score isn’t too impressive but that may be because the device was underclocked to 1.80GHz. The device is also listed to feature 8GB of RAM and will run Android 10 out of the box likely with the MIUI 11 custom skin on top.
The Redmi K30 Pro is expected to continue with the dual punch-hole selfie camera and quad-camera setup at the rear. The phone is also expected t come with a curved edge display design. The K30 came with an LCD display as well as a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. We expect an even better OLED display with under-display fingerprint sensor onboard.
There is no word yet on when the K30 Pro will go official but we expect that to happen soon, likely after the Mi 10 series launch.
