The phones will arrive as successors to the Redmi K60 and like the predecessor, will have multiple variants: the vanilla Redmi K70, Redmi K70 Pro and Redmi K70e. The phones will launch on November 29th and the teaser images posted by the brand have confirmed some key specifications, including the chipset and more.
Separately, the Redmi K70e’s alleged hands-on image has surfaced online, revealing the design of the phone ahead of the launch. The specifications have also been tipped.
Redmi K70 series launch date confirmed
- The Redmi K70 series is set to debut on November 29th in China.
- The Redmi K70 Pro is confirmed to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. This makes the second phone from Xiaomi to ship with the new Qualcomm flagship processor after the Xiaomi 14.
- The cheaper Redmi K70e will come with a 1.5K display with 1800nits brightness, 12-bit colour depth, and 1920Hz PWM high-frequency dimming.
- The handset would come with a 5,000mAh battery, 90W fast charging support, and the new MediaTek Dimensity 8300 Ultra chipset.
- The Redmi K70e will come with 5000mm2 gaming-grade stainless steel VC, which is claimed to be the biggest on a Redmi phone.
Redmi K70e design
The Redmi K70e live images have leaked online, courtesy of DigitalChatStation on Weibo. The images show the phone will have slim bezels around the screen, a centre-positioned punch-hole cutout for the selfie shooter and flat edges. There will be an in-display fingerprint sensor for security. The volume rocker and power buttons are on the right edge.
The phone will run HyperOS out of the box and there will be up to 1TB storage. While we don’t get to see the back panel, the recently leaked Redmi K70 showed a large camera island on the top portion with triple camera sensors. We speculate the Redmi K70e could also have a similar design.
