According to online reports, Xiaomi will be launching its 2022 flagship killer offerings, the Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro as soon as next month in September. 

And last week, we saw the Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro receiving electronics certifications from the FCC in the United States and Thailand’s NBTC agency. And today, the Malaysian technology news site, Amanz, reported that both devices were officially certified in the Malaysian electronics safety regulation agency (SIRIM) database.

The standard Xiaomi 12T holds the model number 22071212AG, whilst the Xiaomi 12T Pro sports the model number 22081212UG. And with the safety certifications for both devices officially approved, it is safe to say that the availability of the Xiaomi 12T series will include countries like Malaysia, Thailand, and possibly other surrounding Asian countries as well.

Regarding, the specifications of the Xiaomi 12T series, based on our previous reporting, the vanilla Xiaomi 12T is expected to feature MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 8100 Ultra SoC, 8 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of built-in storage.

Last month, Lu Weibing, General Manager of the Redmi brand, revealed that the company will be launching a new Redmi K50 series smartphone powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 SoC. A few interesting details about this upcoming handset have now emerged.

The forthcoming Redmi-branded smartphone with a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset is rumored to go official as Redmi K50S Pro. According to Digital Chat Station, this phone will also arrive with an improved display, cameras, and battery/charging.

Most importantly, the tipster also suggests the presence of a telephoto camera. But it will be likely a normal 2x or 3x shooter instead of a periscope module.

The last Redmi phone with a zoom camera was the China-exclusive Redmi K30 Pro Zoom Edition whose 8MP telephoto camera was paired with a 3x lens and OIS.

Prior to that, both the Redmi K20 and the Redmi K20 Pro had an 8MP telephoto shooter with a 2x lens. The Redmi K series was expected to retain a proper wide +  ultra-wide +  telephoto camera setup after its debut. But unfortunately, that did not happen.

The Redmi K30 and the Redmi K30 5G came with useless 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensors. Xiaomi’s popular 5MP telemacro camera with auto-focus debuted on the Redmi K30 Pro. This camera was later used by the entire Redmi K40 lineup (except Redmi K40 Gaming Edition) but has been dropped by this year’s Redmi K50 series in favor of useless 2MP macro snapper.

The Redmi K50S Pro is expected to release as Xiaomi 12T Pro in international markets. Hence, if the aforementioned information is true, customers outside mainland China will be also able to use a zoom camera on a flagship killer Xiaomi smartphone after a long time.

Xiaomi is planning to launch the Redmi K50s and Redmi K50s Pro smartphones in the domestic Chinese market. These devices are expected to get rebadged as the Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro for the global market.

The Redmi K50s Pro has already appeared on TENAA and CMIIT certification websites revealing many of its key specifications. Now, tipster Yogesh Brar has revealed the complete spec sheet of the upcoming Redmi K50s Pro. So let’s take a look at these specifications.

Redmi K50s Pro (rumored)

According to Brar, the Redmi K50s Pro will come with a 6.67-inch OLED display panel offering 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support.

Under the hood, the device is said to house the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. The tipster suggests that the K50s Pro will be offered with 8GB/12GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB storage. It is currently not clear if the company will offer the K50s Pro in two configurations or three. As for the battery, it will have a 5,000mAh capacity with 120W fast charging support.

For optics, the device is rumored to have a 200-megapixel primary camera, making it one of the first smartphones to have a 200-megapixel camera besides the Motorola Edge X30 Pro, which is scheduled to launch on August 2nd. Other sensors on the Redmi K50s Pro will include an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 2-megapixel macro camera. As for the front, the device is expected to have a 20-megapixel selfie snapper.

Other than that, the K50s will likely debut with a dual speaker setup, in-display fingerprint scanner, and Android 12-based MIUI 13 operating system.

Details about the launch date of the device and the pricing are still under wraps, so stay tuned for more updates.

The Redmi K50S and Redmi K50S Pro are rumored to be in the works. Yesterday, iQOO announced the iQOO 10 and iQOO 10 Pro smartphones in China. Soon after its announcement, Redmi General Manager, Lu Weibing, took to Weibo to tease Redmi’s upcoming flagship phone, which will feature the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. It looks like the rumoured Redmi K50S series could come out in China as soon as next month (August).

Weibing has teased the arrival of a new K50 series phone with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip onboard. Most likely, he is teasing the release of the Redmi K50S series, which is expected to have the latest chip from Qualcomm.

An upcoming Xiaomi phone with model number 22081212C was spotted at the CMIIT certification last month. The device was approved by China’s 3C authority earlier this month. The 3C listing revealed that the device may arrive with a 120W fast charger. Rumors are rife that this device will be made official with the Redmi K50S Pro moniker in the home market.

Since the Redmi K50S Pro has already bagged 3C certification, it seems it may break cover in August. The model number of the Redmi K50S is 22071212AC. It is yet to bag any certification in China.

The K50S Pro is expected to arrive with a 120Hz OLED display, an SD8+G1 chip, 8 GB / 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support. It is also tipped to debut as Xiaomi’s first 200-megapixel camera phone.

Rumors are rife that Redmi could be planning to launch the Redmi K50S and K50S Pro in China. It appears that the K50S Pro may debut as the company’s first smartphone with a 200-megapixel camera. A new leak that has surfaced again hints that the K50S Pro will have a 200-megapixel camera.

As can be seen in the screenshot, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has shared key specifications of an upcoming flagship phone, which is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (mentioned as SM8475 part number) chip. The leak further mentions that this device is equipped with a 120Hz display, a 200-megapixel camera, and a 5000mAh± battery.

The comments section of the post shows that the tipster is not talking about the Moto X30 Pro, which is expected to debut soon in China as the world’s first 200-megapixel camera phone.

The only other brand that is rumored to launch a 200-megapixel camera phone is Xiaomi. Hence, he seems to be talking about a Xiaomi flagship phone.

The recently unveiled Xiaomi 12S, 12S Pro, and 12S Ultra are all equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. Hence, the company is unlikely to launch another “Xiaomi” branded SD+8G1 phone.

Reports have revealed that the global markets will be receiving the Xiaomi 12T series with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip instead of the Xiaomi 12S series. The 12T and 12T Pro phones are likely to get rebadged as the Redmi K50S and Redmi K50S Pro in China.

Leaked information that surfaced last week revealed that the Xiaomi 12T Pro will have a 200-megapixel camera. This indicates that the Redmi K50S Pro heading to China will also flaunt the same camera. Hence, it appears that the above-mentioned leaked specifications may belong to the Redmi K50S Pro.

The Redmi K50S Pro has already received 3C certification. Hence, it is likely that the Redmi K50S and K50S Pro may go official in August in China.

The 3C certification of the Xiaomi phone with the 22081212C model number reveals that it may ship with an MDY 12-ED power adapter, which supports up to 120W fast charging. Hence, it appears that the retail package of the Redmi K50S Pro may include a 120W charger.

The rumor mill is yet to reveal the key specifications of the Redmi K50S Pro. It is expected to get rebranded as the Xiaomi 12T Pro.

Redmi K50S Pro / Xiaomi 12T Pro specifications (rumored)

In addition, the global market is expected to receive another variant called the Xiaomi 12T Pro Hypercharge (model number: 22081212UG). This device may possibly support 120W fast charging. The Xiaomi 12T Pro heading to Japan has a 22081212R model number. Readers are advised to take the final marketing names of these devices with a pinch of salt. These devices are not expected to be released in India.

The publication claimed that the Xiaomi 12T will feature the Dimensity flagship chipset, whereas the Xiaomi 12T Pro will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. It appears the same goes for the Redmi K50S and K50S Pro.

The predecessor T-branded phones, such as the Xiaomi Mi 10T series and the Xiaomi 11T lineup, were released in September 2021 and 2020, respectively. Hence, it is likely that the Xiaomi 12T lineup may break cover around the same time this year. As far as the K50S series is concerned, it may launch earlier as it has bagged CMIIT certification.

As the rumour mill for Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ turns faster, it seems that more leaks have surfaced online regarding Android phone manufacturers opting for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ SoC as their preferred chipset for their upcoming flagships that are planned to launch in the second half of 2022.

So far, it seems that Xiaomi may be the biggest customer for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ SoC as a recent leak shows that the tech giant may have at least 6 upcoming 2022 flagships that will sport the unannounced chipset which is respectively the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold 2, Xiaomi 12S, Xiaomi 12S Pro, Redmi K50S Pro and the Xiaomi 12T Pro.

The leaks come from the team over at Xiaomiui, as the team has discovered several Snapdragon Xiaomi devices that are currently in development, most notably the ones with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chipset, via Xiaomi’s MIUI Internal Source Code. 

The internal source code references a list of devices that are utilising an unannounced SM8475 chipset, in which SM8475 is the codename for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+. The list mentions 5 internal codenamed devices, which can then be traced back to 6 upcoming Xiaomi devices with their respective marketing names that will be sporting the unannounced flagship chipset: 

• Xiaomi 12 UItra (thor)
• Xiaomi Mi MIX FOLD 2 (zizhan)
• Xiaomi 12S (diting)
• Xiaomi 12S Pro (unicorn)
• Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50S Pro (mayfly)

Out of the 6 devices, the Xiaomi 12 Ultra is expected to be the brand’s first flagship to sport the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+, as an earlier leaked poster of the Xiaomi 12 Ultra was circulating around in April citing that the device is due to be launched on May 10th. 

Although we have heard the Xiaomi Mi Mix FOLD 2 and Xiaomi 12T Pro popped up in earlier leaks, it seems that Xiaomi still has 2 more flagships, the Xiaomi 12S and 12S Pro to launch in 2022, which could provide a very crowded competition in 2022’s Android flagship space.

The reason why the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ is so highly anticipated over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 is that industry insiders have been hearing that Qualcomm will be switching from Samsung’s 4nm chip fabrication process to TSMC’s 4nm process for its next flagship chip. 

Predictions indicate that the switch to TSMC’s process could lead to higher yields, better power efficiency and lower thermal throttling for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ chipsets, making it a very attractive prospect for Android phone manufacturers in the market.

The post List of Upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen1+ Xiaomi Devices Revealed via Internal MIUI Source Code appeared first on Gizmochina.

Although the Redmi K50 series was launched only in April, it seems that the ambitious Xiaomi company is already brewing up its successor, the Redmi K50S series to be released soon in the second half of 2022.

A report by xiaomiui.net has recently uncovered the flagship device models that will be launched soon by Xiaomi later in the year. The team that reported on the leak has gotten the info from Xiaomi’s MIUI software codebase. 

According to the report, Xiaomi will be launching a total of 5 models from the Redmi K50S series and Xiaomi 12T series this year which are respectively the Redmi K50S Pro, the standard Redmi K50S, the standard Xiaomi 12T, Xiaomi 12T Pro, and Xiaomi 12T Pro HyperCharge.

The codebase also reveals the model number, region availability and processor that is running under the hood of these 5 upcoming flagships.

Let’s start with the “Pro” models first. The Redmi K50S Pro is to be announced in China under the model number 22081212C. The device is to be equipped with Qualcomm’s upcoming yet-to-be-announced flagship processor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+. 

Moving onto the Xiaomi 12T Pro, the device is said to be a rebrand of the Redmi K50S Pro but for the global market as it shares a similar model number 22081212G instead. The Xiaomi 12T Pro will also be available in Japan as well but with the model number 22081212R instead. 

However, what is interesting is that Xiaomi is supposedly bringing a “Hypercharge” version of the Redmi K50S Pro, called the Xiaomi 12T Pro Hypercharge. This model seems to be not available in China and will be exclusive to the global market under the model number 22081212UG.

Since the Xiaomi 12T Pro is a rebrand of the Redmi K50S Pro, the Xiaomi 12T Pro will be sporting the same Snapdragon 8 Gen1+ as its Chinese counterpart as well.

As for the standard models, the standard Redmi K50S will be launched in China under the model number 22071212AC whereas the Xiaomi 12T will be launched in the global market under the model number 22071212AG. The Xiaomi 12T is to be a rebranded version of the Redmi K50S launched for the global market.

Gathering from the codebase, it seems that the Xiaomi 12T/Redmi K50S will be powered by an unknown MediaTek Dimensity chipset instead of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1+.

It seems that Xiaomi is really trying to push into the upper mid-range and flagship premium segment hard in 2022, and for updates on the latest releases by Xiaomi, stay tuned to Gizmochina’s coverage on the latest news of gadgets and devices from China.
