The Redmi K50 Extreme Edition is scheduled to launch this month in China. The K50 series includes three devices in China, such as the Redmi K50, the Redmi K50 Pro, and the Redmi K50 Gaming. All three models have a side-facing fingerprint scanner. But a leak from a reliable source, Digital Chat Station, says that the K50 Extreme Edition will have a fingerprint scanner under the screen.

The Redmi K50 Extreme Edition is said to be the Redmi device with model number 22081212C, which has appeared in the databases of CMIIT, 3C, TENAA, and AnTuTu in recent days. It will be the first Redmi phone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset. Previously, the device was called by other names, like the Redmi K50s Pro or the Redmi K50 Ultra.

The Redmi K30 Ultra was advertised as the Redmi K30S Commemorative Edition in 2020. Hence, it is likely that the K50 Extreme Edition could be called the Redmi K50 Ultra. On AnTuTu, the device was spotted with an impressive benchmarking score of 1,120,691.

Rumors surrounding the device have claimed that it may house a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a centrally positioned punch-hole. It may deliver an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be offered in 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage configurations. The phone could get its power from a 5,000mAh battery, which may support 120W fast charging.

The smartphone will boot into the MIUI 13-based Android 12 operating system. For selfies, it will have a 20-megapixel front camera. The rear camera setup of the device will feature a 200-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 2-megapixel macro camera.
