Redmi is expected to unveil the Redmi K50 series as early as this month. Ahead of that, the smartphones in the lineup have started getting necessary certifications. Three models have now made their appearance on TENAA.

According to Digital Chat Station, three Redmi K50 series phones have been certified by TENAA. These devices bear model numbers 22021211RC, 22041211AC, and 22011211C respectively.

The tipster says that these handsets are powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset. Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC, and unannounced MediaTek Dimensity 8000 chip. However, he specifically doesn’t mention the silicon associated with the aforementioned models.

According to earlier reports, the Redmi K50 series smartphone with model number 22021211RC will be powered by a Snapdragon 870 chipset. Further, the one with model number 22041211AC was previously said to house a yet-to-release Dimensity 7000 chip. For the unaware, this SoC is now rumored as Dimensity 8000.

Lastly, the phone with model number 22011211C was earlier reported to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 silicon. However, Digital Chat Station does not list this chipset in his post. Instead, he mentioned Dimensity 9000. Hence, this particular device could come powered by the latest flagship chip from MediaTek, rather than Qualcomm.

We expect these handsets to get more certifications in the coming days. At the same, we are also looking forward to the official teasers from Redmi. In other words, like any other recent smartphone from the Xiaomi group, we expect to learn almost everything about the Redmi K50 family before it goes official.

We first heard about Xiaomi Ingres at the end of August. A month later in September, certain details about the phone emerged. Two months from that, a report now says that this handset will be sold under three names worldwide.

According to a report by Xiaomiui, the upcoming Xiaomi Ingres bears shortened model number L11. This model number was recently tipped to belong to the Redmi K50 series.

The smartphone has now appeared in the IMEI database with three different model numbers confirming multiple regional variants and brandings. At present, it has the following model numbers.

Xiaomi Ingres (L11) Model Numbers

• 22011211C – China
• 22011211G – Global
• 22011211I – India

The listings say that in China, the device will be released under the Redmi brand. Whereas, in India, it will sport Xiaomi branding. Elsewhere, it will be a POCO smartphone.

Previous findings from MIUI code have revealed that the handset will be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Qualcomm SM8450 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 1). Hence, Xiaomiui suggests that this phone could be called Redmi K50 Pro in China, Xiaomi 12X Pro in India, and POCO F4 Pro in other parts of the world.

Further, the device is said to sport a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 64MP OmniVision OV64B primary sensor, an ultrawide unit, and a macro snapper. It is expected to feature a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, however, a reliable tipster Digital Chat Station hinted at an in-display fingerprint sensor not long ago.

As far as the launch timeline is concerned, the smartphone is anticipated to debut in January 2022, as per the first four digits of its model numbers. Lastly, although the MIUI development for the handset began in August 2021, there’s a chance it might hit the market with MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
