Xiaomi’s Redmi brand only took the wraps off the high-end Redmi K40 series in March this year. The K40 joins a growing list of flagship models which started with the Redmi K20 series. The K20 was launched in May 2019 as Redmi’s first flagship model. The K30 also joined the fray in November 2019 while the K30S made its debut in 2020. Xiaomi is now working on the Redmi K50.
Redmi’s GM and Xiaomi vice-president Lu Weibing recently attempted to sample opinion of fans concerning the features, configuration and experience they hope to get from the next-gen Redmi K50. Apart from that, prolific tipster Digital Chat Station also disclosed that the K50 series will improve on the features of its predecessor especially in the aspect of fast charging, video/imaging, and screen quality.
Recall that the Redmi K40 featured support for 33W fast charging technology for the 4,520mAH battery under the hood. We may see an upgrade to either 50W or 65W. For now, there is no lead as to the features that would find their way into the K50 series. The Chinese tech giant is yet to say when the model will be unveiled but going by precedence and the timing of Weibing’s post, the company might announce the model before the year runs out.
