While Xiaomi is likely working to launch the Xiaomi 15 series of smartphones in China in October, its sub-brand Redmi is reportedly developing the Redmi K80 lineup, which could become official in November. To recall, the Redmi K70 and K70 Pro, which debuted last year, came equipped with a 5,000mAh battery and 120W fast charging support. Recent reports suggested that the Redmi K80 and K80 Pro may pack a 5,500mAh battery. However, a new leak suggests that the K80 series will have an even larger battery.

Tipster Smart Pikachu claims that the Redmi K80 series, which originally planned to have a 5,500mAh battery, will now feature a larger battery capacity, likely starting with a 6. This indicates that the K80 and K80 Pro may house a 6,000mAh battery. Furthermore, the leaker revealed that the camera module of the Redmi K80 series will feature a streamlined design, positioned at the upper-left corner.
As per a previous leak, the Pro model will have a glass back and a metal frame. Expected features include a flat OLED panel with 2K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, a 50-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and support for 120W rapid charging. Being a Pro variant, the device is expected to feature the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. For security, it may feature an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor.
The Redmi K80, on the other hand, may house a 2K OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. There is a possibility that the K80 and K80 Pro may get rebranded as the Poco F7 and F7 Pro in markets outside of China in 2025.
