Following the Xiaomi 12 series, the company is ready to expand its flagship smartphone lineup. However, this time it’s the Redmi series that is getting revamped with the Redmi K50 series. The upcoming series is the successor to the last year’s Redmi K40 tipped to launch with at least two models. The Redmi K50 Pro is likely to join the Redmi 50 vanilla model and has now surfaced online in the form of leaked renders.
Redmi K50 Pro Design Revealed Via Leaked Renders
The Redmi K50 Pro’s renders have surfaced online courtesy Xiaomiui. The publication has shared the image of both fasciae as well the rear panel of the upcoming premium gaming handset. It can be seen flaunting a punch-hole display design upfront. The handset’s panel seems tall (likely 6.4-inches or above) with the in-display camera cutout positioned at the center. The bezels surrounding the panel are narrow on all corners (including the chin). Also, the panel seems to have curved edges adding to the premium factor.
Moving to the rear, the Redmi K50 Pro has a big square-shaped camera module. It is painted in dual shades where the upper half aligning the camera module in the triangular array is black and the lower half silver portion houses the LED flash module. This camera image inscribes “AI Camera 64MP” text confirming the main lens.
Both power and the volume keys are positioned on the right spine. It seems that the power key doesn’t integrate a fingerprint scanner. This rules out the possibility of a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. We will likely see an in-display fingerprint scanner for biometrics. Thanks to the rumor mill, we have enough details available related to the Redmi K50 Pro’s hardware.
The upcoming premium gaming handset by Xiaomi is also said to use the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 series processor as the Xiaomi 12 series. Additionally, it is expected to borrow an AW8697 vibration from the Xiaomi 12 series and the MIX 5. The device will also have a liquid-cooled vapor chamber for heat dissipation. Other Redmi K50 Pro leaked features include a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution.
The primary 64MP sensor at the back might be paired up with a 13MP OV13B10 ultra-wide-angle sensor and a 2MP macro sensor. Battery capacity tipped is 4,700 mAh aided by 120W fast charging.
