The Redmi K80 series, which debuted in November 2023 with the Redmi K80 and K80 Pro, set a new benchmark for the brand’s upgraded lineup, achieving over 660,000 units sold on its first day and breaking the K-series sales record. Now, attention is shifting to its upcoming premium variant—the Redmi K80 Ultra. According to leaks from trusted tech blogger @DigitalChatStation, the device is tentatively scheduled for a July release alongside new IoT products, forming part of Xiaomi’s “performance ecosystem.”
Current Redmi K80 Series
Key Specifications of the Redmi K80 Ultra The Redmi K80 Ultra will be among the first smartphones to feature MediaTek’s cutting-edge Dimensity 9400+ chipset. Built on TSMC’s 3nm process, this upgraded variant retains the Dimensity 9400’s full big-core CPU architecture, including:
1x Cortex-X925 prime core (clocked at 3.7GHz, MediaTek’s fastest mobile CPU to date)
3x Cortex-X4 performance cores
4x Cortex-A720 efficiency cores
Early benchmarks suggest the Dimensity 9400+ will surpass its predecessor’s 3-million AnTuTu score, solidifying its position as a flagship performance leader.
Design and Features The Redmi K80 Ultra is rumored to sport a 1.5K OLED display with LTPS technology, quad-edge visual symmetry, and an under-display 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. Its rear design draws inspiration from the iPhone 16 Pro, featuring a glossy two-tone finish with a vertical camera module housing three lenses and a strip-style flash. Additional highlights include:
7,400–7,500mAh battery with 100W wired fast charging
Large X-axis linear vibration motor
Symmetrical dual stereo speakers
