Redmi is scheduled to announce its highly anticipated Redmi K50 series this Thursday, March 17 in China. Earlier this week, the company had revealed the stunning design of one of its Redmi K50 series devices with a redesigned camera island and in a matte black design, which the company calls “Feather Black”.

However, smartphones normally don’t come with only one colour option, and there are more colour options to be announced at the launch event. However, new information leaked online seems to indicate that the Redmi K50 will be coming in 4 colours in total: Black, Blue, Gold and White.

The news comes from tech enthusiast, Mayank Kumar on Twitter, which had revealed the 3 upcoming colour options via a Tweet. 

The Redmi K50 series in Gold is a refreshing look in the Android space as very few 2022 Android flagships are sporting a rich gold colourway. The only other device that comes to mind is the Golden Huawei P50 Series which was launched last year.

The Redmi K50 series in Blue looks similar to the Matte Light Blue of its more expensive cousin, the Xiaomi 12.

The Redmi K50 series in White shares a resemblance with last year’s Redmi K40/Poco F3/Mi 11X series with the Arctic White matte finish. 

However, do take the leaks of the other 3 colours with a grain of salt as these leaked renders share an uncanny likeness to the official reveal of the Feather Black colourway of the Redmi K50 by Redmi themselves.

Looks are not the only deciding factor when buying a smartphone, and Redmi knows that dearly as the company is speccing out the Redmi K50 with industry-leading performance with its MediaTek Dimensity 8100 and 9000 processors under the hood. 

Official Antutu Benchmarks have already shown that one of the unannounced Redmi K50 series devices equipped with the Dimensity 9000 has officially crossed the 1 million score threshold, beating out the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Exynos 2200.

Redmi also hinted that the Redmi K50 will feature a competitive camera setup to even rival flagships higher than its price range. The Redmi K50 series launch is happening this Thursday and for more coverage on the event, stay tuned to Gizmochina.

As we inch closer to February, Xiaomi is about to lift the curtains of its Redmi K50 series. The rumour mill has started to spin faster as more specs of the Redmi K50 lineup are leaked in China.

One leak comes from the popular Chinese leakster, Panda is Bald. The leakster recently took to Weibo to leak and share his excitement on the upcoming Redmi K50 series using the Sony IMX766 imaging sensor as the flagship’s main camera sensor. The Sony IMX766 is the same sensor featured on many well-known flagships such as the Xiaomi 12, Realme GT 2 Pro and Oppo Find X3 Pro.

However, the Weibo post does not specify which Redmi K50 model is getting the sensor, but previous leaks indicate that the sensor will be featured on either the Redmi K50 Pro, the Redmi K50 Pro Plus, or both.

As per previous leaks, the Redmi K50 Pro is also rumored to feature a 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 4700mAh battery, and 120W charging.

In addition, a few days ago, leaked renders and the casing of the Redmi K50 Pro had surfaced online. The leaked render of the Redmi K50 Pro reveals that the smartphone will come with a single punch-hole cutout in the top-center position and the display will have rounded corners, similar to the phone’s body.

On the back, the device will have a camera module placed in the top-left corner. The black-colored square section will hold the three camera sensors in a triangular format, and a silver-colored rectangular section will house the LED flash. 

As for case renders, we have exclusive images of the transparent silicone case for the Redmi K50 Pro smartphone which, as mentioned above, is in line with the leaked render. This pretty much confirms this to be the phone’s final design.

Xiaomi also has officially confirmed that it will debut the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 on one of its Redmi K50 series models. The Dimensity 9000 is MediaTek’s flagship SoC for 2022, and it is built on TSMC’s industry-leading 4nm process. From Geekbench 5 scores, the Dimensity 9000 is on par and can outperform the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in many demanding scenarios.
