This year, Redmi plans to expand its K80 series with the upcoming launch of the Redmi K80 Ultra. Reports suggest that it could be the first Redmi flagship to launch in the second half of this year. The rumor mill has already started leaking details about the K80 Ultra. A recent leak revealed that the Ultra model will arrive with a significantly improved battery. Now, a new leak, courtesy of tipster Smart Pikachu, has revealed key details about the K80 Ultra.
Redmi K80 Ultra key details tipped
The above leak reveals that the Redmi K80 Ultra will have a glass body and a metal middle frame. While the Redmi K70 Ultra featured an optical-type fingerprint sensor, the K80 Ultra is tipped to feature an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor.
The leak reveals that the Redmi K80 Ultra will lack a periscope camera, which is unsurprising given that it is designed as a performance-driven phone rather than one focused on photography. Upon questioning the leaker about the K80 Ultra’s battery size, he revealed that it will pack the largest battery ever seen on a Redmi phone. As per a recent report, the K80 Ultra’s battery size will not be less than 6,500mAh, suggesting that the battery life may exceed 7,000mAh. As far as the design is concerned, it is likely to be similar to the existing Redmi K80 series models.
The Redmi K70 Ultra went official in July 2024. When asked if the K80 Ultra’s launch timeframe would be the same as the K70 Ultra, Smart Pikachu responded, saying that its launch will be slightly advanced, which indicates it may launch in June or early July this year.
In terms of the chipset, the Redmi K80 Ultra is expected to debut as one of the first phones to feature the Dimensity 9400 Plus chip, an overclocked version of the D9400. The leak also claims that there will be a high-end version, although it does not specify what this entails. There is a possibility that this could refer to a special edition or a 24GB+1TB variant, like the Redmi K70 Ultra. Other reports have revealed that the K80 Ultra will feature a flat OLED panel with super-thin bezels and 1.5K resolution support.
