Xiaomi has recently launched the Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi 12X, and Xiaomi 12 Pro flagship phones in China. Now, its sub-brand seems to be gearing up to introduce the Redmi K50 series lineup. If it arrives early, it may impact the sales of the Xiaomi 12 lineup. Hence, it is likely to go official in January or February 2022. However, it appears that the launch of the first K50 series phone may not be too far away as it bagged approval from the TENAA authority of China.

It is speculated that the device will come with the device will be equipped with an OLED panel a punch-hole design and Gorilla Glass Victus protection. The screen is expected to support a 120Hz or 144Hz refresh rate. It will come preinstalled with MIUI 13 based Android 12 OS.
The Redmi K50 Gaming is likely to feature the Dimensity 9000 chipset. Its rear camera setup may house a 64-megapixel Sony IMX686 primary camera, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens, an 8-megapixel telemacro snapper, and a 2-megapixel macro camera. It is speculated that there is a higher variant of the phone that features a 108-megapixel Samsung HM2 main camera instead of the 64-megapixel lens.
