Back in March, Chinese manufacturing giant, Xiaomi, officially unveiled the Redmi K30 Pro. At the time, this smartphone had four colour options. According to recent information from Redmi’s official Weibo handle, this device will get a new colour option tomorrow. Unfortunately, the company did not reveal the exact colour to arrive tomorrow. The Weibo post partly reads “Seawater, soft sand, breeze…Summer is here, have you gone to the beach?”.
Taking a close look at the teaser image, it seems to be a combination of some natural elements. The natural elements include the sea and sand. The teaser shows a marine blue colour (sea) as well as a light brown (sand) colour. This smartphone is already available for pre-order at Mi Mall. Looking at the pre-sale image, the upper part of the smartphone uses the sand colour while the lower part is sky blue (sea).
Recall that the Redmi K30 Pro 8GB +128GB arrived with a 2999 yuan ($427) starting price. However, this new colour option (8GB + 128GB) comes with a 2699 yuan ($385) price tag. There are reports that it also has 8GB RAM + 256GB and 12GB RAM + 128GB variants.
