Redmi K50i launched in India, Specs and Price details.

Redmi is bringing back the popular K-series phones in India beginning with the new Redmi K50i.

The K20 series launched back in 2019 with the K20 and K20 Pro.

At the time, the K20 Pro was a sought after device given it offered the top-end Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor for Rs 27,999 with a premium glass design.

We will have to see where K50i is priced by Redmi, though this will likely play in the same Rs 25,000 to Rs 35,000 segment once again.

The launch event for the new Redmi K50i goes live at 12:00pm IST on Xiaomi’s YouTube channel.

The Redmi K50i has been officially kept under wraps, but the phone is expected to be a rebranded Redmi Note 11T Pro (Poco X4 GT in some markets), which means we could see specifications like a Mediatek Dimensity 8100 chip, a 6.6-inch IPS LCD screen and a 64MP triple camera on the back.

We will have to wait and see how Xiaomi prices the new Redmi K series option. If it comes with the Mediatek Dimensity 8100 Max it will compete against phones like the OnePlus 10R and the newly launched Oppo Reno8 Pro, going purely by specifications.

The device will reportedly feature a IP53 dust and splash resistance body and fingerprint sensor integrated in the power button.

The smartphone will run on Android 12 out of the box and it may be backed by a 5,080mAh battery that carries support for 67W fast charging.

Redmi K50i to go on sale from July 23, to be available both online and offline

The Redmi K50i 5G will go on sale from July 23 and users will be able to get their hands on the phone from both online and offline markets including platforms like Mi.com, Amazon and Croma.

Redmi K50i 5G priced at Rs 25,999 onwards

The Redmi K50i is priced at Rs 25,999 for the 6GB/128GB variant and Rs 28,999 for the 8GB/256GB variant.

Redmi also has an early-bird offer with Rs 3,000 instant discount on ICICI bank cards and another Rs 2,500 exchange bonus.

Customers picking up the new phone offline can also make use of an offer where they can get a Xiaomi Smart speaker worth Rs 4,999 for free instead of the ICICI bank discount.
