Redmi has confirmed that it will be launching a new K-series phone in India later this month on July 20. The new device is the Redmi K50i 5G. A new promotional image shared by the company suggests that the phone will sport a blue colourway and come with a triple camera setup on the back.
Other information on the Redmi K50i has not been made official yet but we’re likely to see more specifications revealed in the days leading up o the launch.
However, the Redmi K50i is reportedly set to be based off not a K-series phone from China, but instead the brand’s Note lineup.
The Redmi K50i is likely to be based of the Redmi Note 11T Pro+ that launched in China earlier this year, as per leaks. If this is true, we could see it launch with largely the same specifications.
This includes a 6.6-inch FHD+ 144Hz IPS LCD screen, a Dimensity 8100 chipset, a triple rear camera comprising a 64MP main sensor, 8MP ultrawide sensor and 2MP macro sensor and a 4400mAh battery with support for 120W fast charging.
We however, suggest you take this information with grain of salt for now, as even if Redmi rebrands the same phone as the K50i in India, specifications could change in the Indian variant of the device. We should know more about the Redmi K50i over the next couple of weeks.
