Rumors also point to a triple-camera setup on the back, with a 50 MP main camera. It will come alongside a 50 MP telephoto lens that supports 3x optical zoom.

The design will include a glass back and a metal frame.
Battery capacity details remain uncertain. While the tipster mentioned earlier this year that the K80 Pro might have a 5,500mAh battery, a more recent leak suggests it could be 6,000mAh. The phone will arrive with impressive 120W fast charging technology. It fits with the current trend of smartphones offering large batteries with fast charging capabilities.
