The forthcoming standard Redmi K100 could offer flagship-grade hardware at a competitive price. A new tip from Digital Chat Station sheds light on its potential pricing and hardware priorities. The phone is expected to focus on performance, battery life and audio rather than flashy design features.
Redmi K100 price tipped
According to DCS, the combination of a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of UFS 4.1 storage already costs around 3,000 Yuan (~$450) in component expenses. The standard Redmi K100 is reportedly adding several other features, including the largest battery in Xiaomi’s phone lineup, a dedicated graphics chip, a relatively large vibration motor and dual Bose speakers.
DCS suggests the device could target the 3,500-yuan price segment, equivalent to ~$490. This would place it below the Redmi K100 Pro, which starts at 3,699 Yuan (~$550) in China. The pricing could make the standard model an appealing option for buyers seeking powerful hardware without paying flagship-level prices.
The Redmi K100 has previously been tipped to feature a battery approaching 10,000mAh and a large flat display measuring between 6.8 and 6.9 inches. The screen could support a refresh rate as high as 185Hz, while a dedicated graphics chip may help improve gaming performance. Other features include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. A recent certification revealed that the device may support 100W charging.
Redmi has yet to confirm the phone’s launch date, but it is rumored to break cover by the end of this month.
