    Redmi K80 Pro Geekbench: Affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite Phone?

    Earlier this month, three new Xiaomi smartphones were seen on China’s 3C certification platform. These devices have model numbers: 24122RKC7C, 24127RK2CC, and 24127RK2CC. The exact name for the third model is still a mystery, but it is thought that the Redmi K80 series includes the other two models. Recently, the 24122RKC7C device has been listed in Geekbench’s database, which has shared details about its chipset, RAM, and operating system version.

    Snapdragon 8 Elite Powers Redmi K80 Pro

    The 24122RKC7C phone is confirmed to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, as indicated by the CPU and GPU specifications in the Geekbench listing. This suggests that it is likely the Redmi K80 Pro. Additionally, the listing shows that the device comes with 16 GB of RAM and operates on Android 15. The company has also stated that it achieved an impressive score of over 3 million on AnTuTu benchmarks.

    Pricing Comparison With Other Models

    Last year, the Realme GT 5 Pro and Redmi K70 Pro were both equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The base versions of these phones offered 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. The GT 5 Pro was priced at 3,499 Yuan (about $485), while the Redmi K70 Pro retailed for 3,299 Yuan (around $456).

    K80 Pro: A Budget-Friendly Snapdragon 8 Elite Phone?

    Currently, the Realme GT 7 Pro holds the title of the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite phone, starting at 3,699 Yuan (approximately $510). The K80 Pro may be priced lower than this, possibly at around 3,499 Yuan (nearly $485). This means that the K80 Pro could potentially be the most budget-friendly Snapdragon 8 Elite smartphone. Like its predecessor, this model is expected to be available only in China. However, there are rumors that it will be rebranded as the Poco F7 Ultra for other markets in the first half of 2025.

    Expected Specifications for the Redmi K80 Pro

    When it comes to specifications, the Redmi K80 Pro is likely to feature a 2K OLED display with a resolution of 2K, a 120Hz refresh rate, and an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor. It might come with up to 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. The device is also expected to have a 6,000mAh battery, supporting 120W wired and 50W wireless charging. For photography, the phone could include a 20-megapixel front camera, and a triple camera setup featuring a 50-megapixel main sensor (with OIS), a 32-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 50-megapixel telephoto lens with 2.6x zoom. Additional features might encompass Hyper OS 2, Dragon Crystal Glass construction, a metal mid-frame, and an IP68-rated body.

    Redmi K80 Pro Leaks: Poco F7 Ultra Lookalike Hits AnTuTu Score

    Xiaomi seems to be gearing up for the release of the Redmi K80 series, with rumors suggesting that the Redmi K80 Pro will later be rebranded as the Poco F7 Ultra in the coming year. Although the exact launch date for the Redmi K80 series in China is not yet clear, sightings of the Redmi flagship have already emerged, showcasing some impressive specs.

    Impressive Benchmark Scores

    According to leaker Digital Chat Station, the Redmi K80 Pro achieved a staggering AnTuTu score of over 3 million, specifically 3,016,350. While it’s important to be cautious with benchmark results from devices that aren’t officially released, this score could place the Redmi K80 Ultra at the pinnacle of AnTuTu’s Android rankings, surpassing the current top device, the OnePlus 13, which has an official score of 2.92 million.

    Two Models Expected

    In previous iterations of its Redmi K series, Xiaomi typically launched three devices, but it appears that this time they are focusing on just two models: the Redmi K80 and the Redmi K80 Pro. There are no current indications that Xiaomi plans to introduce a Redmi K80E or a smaller version within this series. Regardless, a launch event is anticipated to occur before the year concludes, and it’s also likely that the Redmi Turbo 4 will be unveiled at this event.

    Redmi K80 Pro AnTuTu Score and Price Under OnePlus 13 Revealed

    The Redmi K80 series is about to be launched soon. Although Xiaomi has not yet started promoting the phone officially, a recent live stream on Douyin, which is China’s version of TikTok, by Redmi’s General Manager, Wang Teng, has given away some important information about the new device.

    First Look at the Redmi K80 Pro

    During the live stream, viewers got to see the front design of the Redmi K80 Pro for the first time. It also showed off its impressive AnTuTu benchmark score and provided hints about its pricing. The K80 Pro scored over 3 million points on AnTuTu 10, all while keeping its temperature at a maximum of 49°C in a normal room environment. The video suggested that the phone might have a metal frame. Additionally, two other unnamed phones were also shown, achieving scores of 2.73 million and 2.83 million points, so it’s quite clear which one is the star of the show.

    Improved Features and No “E” Variant

    Wang Teng also mentioned that the K80 series will utilize the HyperOS 2 system, which is set to enhance gaming experience, boost touch response, and potentially introduce new animations to the system. Another interesting point shared in the stream is the return to a dual flagship strategy for the Redmi K series. This indicates there will be a standard Redmi K80 alongside the K80 Pro, but no new version of the budget-friendly Redmi K70E will be released.

    Pricing Insights for the K80 Pro

    One of the most intriguing pieces of information was about the pricing. Wang Teng indicated that the Redmi K80 Pro will likely have better specifications than a certain “yellow” competitor’s 13th model, presumably referring to the iQOO 13. He also hinted that its price would be lower than that of a “red” rival’s 13th model, which is probably the OnePlus 13. To give some context, the iQOO 13 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is priced at 3999 yuan (around USD 559), while the OnePlus 13 starts at 4499 yuan (about USD 630). Therefore, we might expect the Redmi K80 Pro to be priced under 4,000 yuan.

    Model Variants and Specs

    Reports suggest that the Redmi K80 series will feature at least three models: the Redmi K80e, Redmi K80, and Redmi K80 Pro. These models are expected to be powered by the upcoming Dimensity 8400, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and Snapdragon 8 Elite chipsets, respectively.

    A recent leak has also shown that the Redmi K80 Pro’s rear camera setup will consist of a 50-megapixel OmniVision Light Fusion 900 primary lens, a 32-megapixel Samsung S5KKD1 ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel telephoto lens with 2.6x optical zoom. Moreover, the K80 Pro is likely to feature a 20-megapixel OmniVision OV20B front camera. It is anticipated that the device will have a battery capacity of about 6,000mAh with support for 120W fast charging. Specific details regarding the camera features of the standard K80 have not been disclosed, but its charging abilities might be comparable to those of the Pro model.

    The Redmi K80 may come with a 1.5K resolution OLED display that has an optical fingerprint scanner embedded. In contrast, the K80 Pro could offer a 2K OLED screen featuring an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor.

    The Poco F7 Ultra is rumored to be essentially a renamed version of the Redmi K80 Pro. Reports suggest that both the Redmi K80 Pro and the Poco F7 Ultra will feature a 50 MP OVX8000 main camera.

Among these three sensors, the leaked information suggests that the telephoto lens will offer 3x optical zoom, which was also hinted at by a trusted Weibo leaker, 体验more, earlier.

Both the non-Pro and Pro versions are anticipated to launch in international markets under the Poco brand, with the Pro variant likely debuting as the Poco F7 Ultra.

It’s anticipated that the POCO F7 Ultra will share similar features with the Redmi K80 Pro, as the latter will be released globally under the POCO name.

The primary camera utilizes a 50MP Omnivision Light Hunter 8000 sensor, designed to enhance photography quality, especially in low-light situations, while providing sharper details.
