The Redmi K90 has just been spotted on a popular benchmarking platform, and it looks like Xiaomi is preparing a serious performance beast. The upcoming smartphone has just surfaced on GeekBench, with a major performance upgrade over its predecessor.
Redmi K90 with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Might Be a Flagship Killer?
Xiaomi’s new Redmi K90 was just spotted on the GeekBench platform carrying the 2510DRK44C model number. Looking at the certification listing, the Redmi K90 managed to achieve a great score of 3080 points in the single core test and 9382 points in the multi core test. It received this score with Qualcomm’s latest and greatest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, which is paired with 16GB of RAM.
Xiaomi’s Redmi K90 also runs on the Android 16 OS out of the box, which likely includes the HyperOS 3 custom skin. The Redmi K90 with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is getting a surprising upgrade, considering the Redmi K880 packed the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. To recall, only the higher end Redmi K80 Pro got the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite last year. So this is a major performance bump compared to its predecessor.
Based on what we know so far, the Redmi K90 might support 100W wired fast charging and a massive 7,100mAh battery pack. It may feature a 6.59-inch flat RGB OLED LTPS display with 2K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner for security. Other expected features include dual stereo speakers, a premium metal frame, and an x-axis linear motor. Xiaomi announced the K80 series back in November 2024, so the K90 lineup could see a similar launch timeline.
