Xiaomi has recently revealed the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor in China. There are many rumors suggesting that its sub-brand Redmi might soon unveil the Redmi K80 smartphone series. Last year, Redmi launched the K70e, K70, and K70 Pro in November. While there have been reports indicating the existence of the Redmi K80 and K80 Pro models, it remains uncertain whether a Redmi K80e will be introduced this year. Nevertheless, three new devices believed to belong to the K80 series have received approval from China’s 3C certification authority.
Redmi K80 Series Gets Certified
The model numbered 24122RKC7C has been identified in the 3C database with a 120W fast charger. From previous listings in the IMEI database, this device will be called the Redmi K80. It's anticipated that this smartphone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The global version of this phone, listed as 24122RKC7G in the IMEI database, will be available as the Poco F7 Ultra.
Details on K80 Pro and Other Variants
According to the 3C certification, the device numbered 24127RK2CC might also come with a 120W charger. This phone has already been identified as the Redmi K80 Pro in the IMEI database. It is rumored to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. Unlike the other models, the 24127RK2CC does not have a global variant and is likely to be exclusive to the Chinese market. For reference, the Redmi K70 Pro was also a China-only device.
More Models in the Lineup
The third model, numbered 24117RK2CC, might support 90W fast charging. While it is also referred to as the K80 Pro, the name for the Chinese market is still unknown. However, the global version of this device, identified as 24117RK2CG, is expected to be marketed as the Poco F7 Pro, according to the IMEI database.
Moreover, the model 2412DRT0AC, which has not yet received 3C certification, is recognized as the Redmi Turbo 4 in the IMEI records. The global version is listed under 2412DPC0AG, and the Indian variant is 2412DPC0AI, both set to be branded as the Poco F7.
