After announcing the launch date of the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition earlier today and revealing its design, Redmi has continued teasing the gaming phone through a series of posts. The latest teaser talks about strides made in its read and write speeds, and they’re nothing short of impressive.
The Redmi K50 Gaming Edition comes with an exclusive, self-developed “IO Turbo” read and write engine that has been designed by reconstructing the file read and write architecture. The traditional single-threaded read and write has been converted to multi-threaded, doing away with bottlenecks.
This, Xiaomi claims, boosts decompression speeds up by 100% and copy speeds by 300%. Paired with top-of-the-line LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition should “challenge you to the limits of performance.”
The Redmi K50 Gaming Edition will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor and support VRS variable resolution rendering technology.
Another cool bit revealed today was that the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition comes with 5 major material upgrades for the entire thermal system to greatly improve heat dissipation efficiency. These span the design of the smartphone itself, chip thermal conduction, VC heat transfer, and graphite thermal diffusion.
The Redmi K50 Gaming Edition could be the first to launch from among the Redmi K50 series. The series is perhaps the most diverse yet, equipped with a range of processors including Snapdragon 870, Dimensity 8000, Dimensity 9000, and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
