Xiaomi made waves on October 26 by unveiling its Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro flagship phones in China. Now, the spotlight shifts to Xiaomi’s sub-brand, Redmi, which is poised to make waves with the imminent launch of the Redmi K70 series, touted as affordable flagship phones. Recent insights from tipster Digital Chat Station have shed light on some intriguing details about the upcoming Redmi K70 series.
The Upcoming Redmi K70 Series
In a Weibo post, the tipster delved into the specifics of three upcoming Redmi phones, bearing model numbers N11, N11R, and N11A, all of which are associated with the K70 series. However, the correspondence to Redmi K70, K70 Pro, and K70e remains uncertain.
According to previous reports, these devices are expected to house formidable chipsets—Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and the upcoming Dimensity 8300, respectively. The latest leak adds that the Redmi K70 and K70 Pro will boast a robust metallic middle frame, enhancing durability, while the K70e will opt for a plastic middle frame.
The leak also divulges charging capabilities, with the K70 and K70 Pro supporting a blazing-fast 120W charging speed, while the K70e slightly trails behind with a still-impressive 90W charging capacity. Despite these advancements, wireless charging is not anticipated for any of the models. Battery capacities are expected to vary, with the K70 featuring a 5,000mAh battery, the K70 Pro packing a 5,120mAh powerhouse, and the K70e equipped with an even larger 5,500mAh battery.
Similar to the Xiaomi 14 lineup, the Redmi K70 series is anticipated to debut with the HyperOS-based Android 14. The tipster goes a step further by suggesting that the Redmi K70 lineup could be officially announced by the end of November. Should this timeline hold true, teaser campaigns from the company might commence in the upcoming week, generating anticipation and excitement among consumers eagerly awaiting the unveiling of these highly anticipated devices.
