Redmi K80 Pro Coming Soon: 2K Straight Screen, Price May Exceed 3500 Yuan

Wang Teng, General Manager of Redmi brand, warmed up the upcoming Redmi K80 Pro on Weibo today, posing a question: "How many frequency bands does the K80 Pro need?" This question has also sparked speculation among netizens.

Looking back at previous Xiaomi flagship models, the Xiaomi 15 Pro supports 23 5G frequency bands, while the Xiaomi 15 supports 22 5G frequency bands. Considering the Redmi K80 Pro is a flagship model focusing on cost-effectiveness, it is expected to support at least 22 5G frequency bands, providing users with wider network coverage.

Besides the hint about 5G frequency bands, Wang Teng also revealed that the Redmi K80 Pro will be equipped with a 2K straight screen. He stated that over the past three years, Xiaomi + Redmi has been the brand with the largest 2K screen shipment volume in the Chinese smartphone market, accounting for 90%, with Redmi alone accounting for 70%, significantly exceeding other brands. Data reveals that Redmi has become the main force in the 2K screen market, and the upcoming K80 Pro will naturally be no exception. It will be equipped with a 2K straight screen, providing users with a clearer and more refined visual experience.

Regarding the price, which is of utmost concern to everyone, Wang Teng also gave a clear hint: the price of Redmi K80 Pro will increase. He explained that the main reason for the price increase of flagship phones is the upgrade of flagship processors to the latest 3nm process, which significantly increases the cost of the process. On the other hand, memory has experienced a year-long price increase and has reached its peak, so the price increase of large memory versions is even greater.

Considering the starting price of the previous generation K70 Pro was 3299 yuan, the price of the K80 Pro is expected to be around 3500 yuan. Notably, the K80 Pro will be the only Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 flagship with a 2K straight screen in the same price range, still boasting exceptional cost-effectiveness.

The release date of the Redmi K80 Pro has not been announced yet, but numerous signs indicate that this flagship model with a 2K straight screen and powerful performance is about to meet its audience. We eagerly await its final performance.
