Xiaomi has launched the Mi 11 with the Snapdragon 888. Previously, Lu Weibing, General Manager of the Redmi brand, stated that Redmi will soon launch a phone powered by the Snapdragon 888.
This morning, according to Digital Chat Station, the new Redmi phone with Snapdragon 888 has been certified by MIIT under the code name Haydn, and is expected to be announced in the near future.
The report also pointed out that this new Redmi phone could be one of the cheapest Snapdragon 888 devices launched at the same time. According to Redmi’s product philosophy, its core positioning has always been on cost-effectiveness.
Based on the product naming convention, this phone may belong to the Redmi K series, named K40, and may include at least the K40 and K40 Pro. The two phones have similar appearances, both featuring a punch-hole display, and the main differences lie in their core configurations.
The Redmi K40 Pro will undoubtedly feature the currently popular high refresh rate display, reportedly a 120Hz OLED screen. At the same time, its charging speed has also been upgraded, and it is expected to support up to 55W fast charging.
This phone is expected to be launched in early 2021 or in the first quarter of 2021. Let us wait and see.
