We previously reported that the Redmi K80 series had been spotted in the IMEI database. New information about these smartphones has started to leak and the most important change is that the Redmi K80 Pro will be sold in the global market. Yes, it has been decided that the smartphone, which was originally set to be exclusive to China, will be sold in the Global market.
This is an unexpected change and surprised everyone. This also means that we will see a POCO smartphone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. Of course, take these with a pinch of salt as Xiaomi is likely to make a change again. This information comes from XiaomiTime.
Redmi K80 series coming soon
Redmi K80 series is expected to come with 2 different models: Redmi K80, and Redmi K80 Pro. As for the specs of the devices, the Redmi K80 will have the codename “zorn” and the internal model number “O11”. Also, this smartphone will come with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
At first, the Redmi K80 was thought to have the codename “miro”. But it revealed that the codename “miro” belongs to the Redmi K80 Pro. Redmi K80 Pro draws attention with its internal model number “O11U” and codename “miro”. This smartphone will be equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 (SM8750) processor.
- Redmi K80 – Zorn – SM8650 – 24122RKC7G/24122RKC7C
- Redmi K80 Pro – Miro – SM8750 – 24117RK2CG / 24117RK2CC
The Redmi K80 and Redmi K80 Pro will be available globally, but not in India. A different smartphone, codenamed “rodin”, which is expected to come to Global and India, has also been spotted. This smartphone can be expected to have a possible MediaTek processor, i.e. Dimensity 8400. Of course, you should keep in mind that the Redmi K series phones will come under the POCO brand.
The Redmi K80 Pro was originally expected to be China-only, but we think Xiaomi has made a change as a result of the leak of the plans. Another Redmi K-series smartphone codenamed “dali” has been spotted. There is a high probability that this smartphone will be canceled.
If it is not canceled, we could see 3 different Redmi K series models and this could be surprising. Still, the Redmi K80 series is attracting a lot of attention and we are curious to see what it has to offer. The Redmi K80 series is expected to be announced in November.
