Xiaomi recently confirmed that it will announce the Xiaomi 15 series in China on Oct. 29. Now, its sub-brand Redmi is gearing up for the launch of the Redmi K80 series. It appears the K80 series’ launch is not too far away, as the alleged Redmi K80 Pro has passed 3C certification in China. The said device has appeared with model number 24117RK2CC in 3C’s database.
Redmi K80 Pro 3C certified
The 3C certification of the Redmi 24117RK2CC reveals that it may ship with a 90W fast charger. Unfortunately, the 3C listing does not reveal anything else about the device.
Leaked specifications suggest the Redmi K80 Pro will be a powerhouse, featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which also powers the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro. Its display will reportedly be a 6.67-inch OLED flat panel from TCL Huaxing. It is expected to support a 2K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.
Rumor has it that the K80 Pro will have up to 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. Reports claim that the device will feature a 6,500mAh battery. Apart from 90W wired charging, the device is expected to have wireless charging support.
In the camera department, the Redmi K80 Pro is tipped to feature a triple camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary sensor and a telephoto lens. It is also expected to feature an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor.
Redmi General Manager Wang Teng has hinted at a price increase for the K80 series, citing rising component costs, particularly for the advanced 3nm processor and memory. Despite the potential price hike, Teng assures that the K80 series will offer exceptional value and “outperform many competing products.”
Rumors suggest that the Redmi K80 series will be announced in November in China. It is expected to face competition from the likes of the OnePlus Ace 5 series, iQOO Neo 10 series, and Realme GT Neo 7, which are expected to debut in November-December in China.
