Redmi has announced that the Redmi K80 series is set to launch on November 27 in China. An official poster reveals that the brand is collaborating with Chinese table tennis star Fan Zhendong to promote this new K-series. The lineup consists of the Redmi K80 and the K80 Pro, and notably, there will be no Redmi K80e this year, as a successor to last year's Redmi K70e.
Redmi K80 Design and Variants
The design of the Redmi K80 series is notably distinct from last year's K70 lineup. It showcases a round camera module that is similar to the designs found in the Civi series. This camera setup includes three cameras along with a horizontal LED flash located outside the module. While the front design of the K80 series has not yet been disclosed, both models are anticipated to feature a flat display.
Recent images from a Chinese retail platform have unveiled the color choices for the K80 series. The K80 will come in grey, blue, green, and black.
Color Options for the K80 Pro
Conversely, the K80 Pro will be offered in grey, green, and black. All the color options in the K80 series exhibit a dual-tone design, which adds to their attractiveness. Observing the images closely indicates that the K80 has a dual-camera setup, while the Pro model sports a triple camera arrangement. Although not confirmed by Redmi yet, there’s a chance that the K80 Pro may launch in a special variant, possibly a Lamborghini edition.
The Redmi K80 series will compete with the iQOO Neo 10 and Neo 10 Pro in the Chinese market. iQOO has already announced that the Neo 10 will feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, while the Neo 10 Pro will use the Dimensity 9400 SoC. In contrast, both the K80 and K80 Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Snapdragon 8 Elite, respectively.
