The Redmi K80 series is still fresh, but this can’t hold the leaks for the upcoming Redmi K90 series. Well, the Redmi K80 Pro launched in November last year, and while it is yet to appear on global markets, we’re now hearing news about the Redmi K90 Pro. A new rumor surfaced today from tipster Digital Chat Station indicating an upgrade in the camera system.
Redmi K90 Pro comes with a 50 MP Periscope Telephoto Camera.
According to the tipster, The Redmi K90 Pro will boast Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 SoC. So, we won’t see it before the last quarter of 2025, when Qualcomm typically holds its Snapdragon Summit conference. No surprises here, as the Redmi K90 Pro will be the successor of the K80 Pro with its SD 8 Elite. The surprise seems to be on the camera department which will see some upgrades in the next model.
DSC states that the K90 Pro will come with a 50 MP periscope telephoto camera. It will be the first in this lineup. This will have a larger aperture as well as macro shooting capabilities. The K90 Pro will also have a flat screen with 2K resolution just like its predecessor. Unfortunately, these are all the details available for the next flagship. Anyway, this shouldn’t be a surprise as there are still several months until this new flagship appears on the shelves.
