Xiaomi's sub-brand unveiled its first ever flagship
smartphone, the Redmi K20 Pro, just a couple of days ago, and now it looks like
it's going to get even more high-end in the future.
Suspend your disbelief for a moment, this is
actually possible. See, the official announcement had the K20 Pro topping out
at 8GB of RAM, but there is a version with a whopping 12GB of memory coming.
This has been revealed today by the official listing of the handset on TENAA,
the Chinese regulatory authority that needs to certify every device before it
goes on sale in the country.
The listing clearly says you will be able to get the
phone with 6, 8, or 12GB of RAM. We knew about the first two options already,
the third is a surprise, but not a very big one. After all, 12GB variants are
all the rage in the flagship killer business - just ask the OnePlus 7 Pro. We could speculate that Redmi is
prepping a transparent edition of the K20 Pro, and that wouldn't be out of the
question given Xiaomi's propensity for coming out with those in the past.
TENNA goes further and reveals some new upcoming
color options: pink, white, green, purple, and gray. These will join the
already announced blue, red, and black hues of the K20 Pro. The smartphone will probably be
offered in other markets as either the Pocophone F2 Pro or the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro
- although the latter could come with a different design, one that's more in
line with the Mi 9's looks.
