Redmi K80 Pro: key specifications revealed

Redmi smartphones are traditionally associated with the budget and mid-price segment of the market. In the Chinese market, however, the company periodically releases «flagship killers» — the Redmi «K» series, which, however, enters global markets under the Poco brand. The company is now working on a new smartphone in the series, which will be called the Redmi K80 Pro.
This model will be the successor to the K70 Pro, which was launched in China in November last year. This smartphone is expected to get a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC, a 2K resolution screen, and a 5,500mAh battery with 120W fast wired charging support.
