Redmi K90 Max to launch in China on April 21st with M10 display and 165Hz refresh rate
Redmi is preparing to launch a new performance-focused smartphone in China this month. It’s the Redmi K90 Max, which will be the third phone in the lineup after the Redmi K90 and K90 Pro Max. The latest addition to the lineup appears to primarily target gamers and power users. The brand has been teasing the phone, revealing its design and other features. Now, the launch date has been officially revealed along with key details about the phone’s display.
Redmi K90 Max display details
The Redmi K90 Max is confirmed to feature a 6.83-inch M10 display with a 165Hz refresh rate and 3,500 nits of peak brightness. The smartphone is also said to offer 160 FPS support for over 40 games. That’s a tall claim, but if possible, it would mean ultra-smooth graphics. The Redmi K90 Max’s display will also offer a 3500Hz instantaneous touch sampling rate and a 480Hz multi-finger touch sampling rate. The display specs are clearly made for gamers. It’s a large screen with a high refresh rate aimed at a smooth gaming experience. But it should be equally good for normal scrolling and content consumption as well.

What else to expect from Redmi K90 Max
Not just the hardware, but the design has also been made with gamers in mind. The Redmi K90 Max in ‘Space Silver’ features a metallic finish with a large camera island. It houses two cameras stacked vertically on the side with a circular cooling fan on the other end. The Redmi K90 Max’s cooling system has a high-speed cooling mode with noise levels as low as 32dB. It’s also claimed to reduce the temperature by 10 degrees in 100 seconds.
The smartphone also features an aluminum alloy frame with an ultra-narrow bezel design. It’s also durable with IP66/IP68/IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance. The handset is also equipped with Bose-powered stereo dual speakers. The design is quite different from the Redmi K80 lineup, with the brand putting more focus on a minimalist yet practical design.
The Redmi K90 Max is teased to feature a next-generation flagship processor, which is mostly a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset. It could house an 8,000mAh+ battery with 100W fast charging support. This would be a major upgrade over the Redmi K80 series, which comes with 7,000mAh+ batteries. It would also mean a very reliable battery life on the Redmi K90 Max.
With the details we know so far, the Redmi K90 Max is no doubt a powerful phone. It packs hardware made for gamers and power users with additional features to ensure the smoothest gaming experience. The K90 Max will join a growing trend of gaming-focused smartphones as other brands have also been pushing high refresh rates, advanced cooling, and large batteries.
The Redmi K90 Max is also tipped to launch as the Xiaomi 17T in India, making it a phone worth waiting for, especially for those who want a performance-focused flagship. It would still be wise to wait for reviews and compare the Redmi K90 Max with other similarly priced phones in the segment.
