Recently, Redmi brand general manager Wang Teng has been frequently revealing details about the K80 series through interactions with fans. In response to questions about a plastic frame on the K80, Wang Teng asserted that "we're not going back," confirming that the Redmi K80 series will feature a metal frame. Combined with previous leaks, we can make preliminary assumptions about the design and specs of the Redmi K80 series.

From a design perspective, the Redmi K80 series will have a significant departure from the previous K70 series. The series will continue to utilize a 2K resolution screen with a centered punch-hole design. The metal frame coupled with the circular design of the rear camera module gives the phone a sleek and robust overall look.

In terms of specs, the Redmi K80 Pro will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy processor. This chip, built using TSMC's second-generation 3nm process technology, boasts Qualcomm's self-developed Oryon CPU, achieving peak performance and power efficiency, as previously validated in the Xiaomi 15 series. The Redmi K80 is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, a previous generation flagship chip that still maintains impressive performance. It remains a potent contender in the 2K-3K price segment.

Regarding the display, the Redmi K80 series will continue to feature a 2K resolution screen and is expected to include an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, further enhancing the user experience.

Concerning pricing, Wang Teng has hinted at an increase in the K80 series, but the rise won't be substantial. The Redmi K80 Pro is projected to have a price exceeding 4000 yuan, yet it will still offer users a value proposition commensurate with its cost in the 4000 yuan price range.

Overall, the Redmi K80 series will undergo significant upgrades in design and configuration, aiming to fulfill user expectations for aesthetics and performance. Although there will be a price increase, it will uphold Redmi's consistent commitment to cost-effectiveness. We believe the series has the potential to achieve considerable success in the market.
