Redmi could launch a new K-series smartphone in India soon. So, the popular K series could be making a much-awaited comeback in the country. To recap, the Redmi K20 Pro was launched in India back in 2019. The brand celebrated its 3-year anniversary by showing the device owners across India a movie. Now, some Redmi fans claim they saw a picture that read, “K is back.” Regrettably, key details about the picture were scarce.
Redmi has put all speculations to rest by posting the same graphics on its social media handles. The post has the hashtag #RedmiKisback. So, it is safe to assume that Redmi is prepping to bring the K-series back to India after a long hiatus. Notably, the cryptic social media posts do not confirm the moniker of the device. However, a report by MySmartPrice suggests that it will launch as the Redmi K50i 5G in India. Now, the K50i 5G has been floating around the rumor mill for quite some time.
