Redmi K80 Design May Mirror Upcoming Xiaomi Phone Launching in November

Redmi is set to introduce its new Redmi K80 smartphone series soon. Recent reports indicate that the rear design of the K80 series will have a fresh look compared to the earlier Redmi K70 models. A recent leak from the informant Smart Pikachu on Weibo has provided more insights into the K80 series' design, along with details about its expected launch date.

Design Insights of the K80 Series

The image shared by the tipster appears to show an upcoming Redmi K80 model inside a protective case. This image highlights a new circular camera arrangement that includes three lenses. This design marks a clear departure from the K70 series, which used a rectangular camera setup with sensors aligned symmetrically in a square format at the corner.

It seems that the design of the Redmi K80 series has drawn inspiration from Xiaomi's Civi series, which also features a round camera layout on its back. With the recent launch of the Xiaomi 15 series in China, it looks like Redmi will wait a few more days before officially teasing the K80 lineup.

Launch Timeline and Features

According to the tipster, the Redmi K80 series is expected to launch by the end of November. The 3C certification hints that the series will likely comprise three models: the Redmi K80e, Redmi K80, and K80 Pro. These smartphones are anticipated to be equipped with the Dimensity 8400, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and Snapdragon 8 Elite chipsets, respectively. The K80e is likely to support 90W fast charging, while the K80 and K80 Pro models may come with 120W rapid charging capabilities.

The leaker also mentioned that even though the Redmi K80 series adopts a design similar to the Civi series, Xiaomi has no plans to discontinue the Civi lineup. In fact, the company is reportedly developing a new Civi-branded device, which might be called the Xiaomi Civi 5. Sadly, the tipster did not provide any additional details about this upcoming phone.
