Redmi has already introduced the Redmi Book Pro 15 2022 laptop and the huge Redmi Max 100 TV, and the third new product from the company today is the flagship smartphone Redmi K50 Pro. It is this model that many fans of the brand have been waiting for a long time (more than 600,000 pre-orders have already been submitted for purchase), and today it was released.
It must be said right away that Redmi made a unique price offer: the K50 Pro turned out to be a very affordable smartphone for its parameters. The base version, which has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash memory, is priced at the equivalent of $470 in China. Considering that the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 flagships cost about $550, and the Dimensity 9000 is faster than the top Qualcomm SoC, the Redmi K50 Pro can be called a very inexpensive flagship. True, outside of China, the device will be clearly more expensive.
The cost of other versions is as follows: 8/256 GB – $520, 12/256 GB – $570, 12/512 GB – $630. Starting today, pre-orders are being accepted in China, real sales will start on March 22. But there is no doubt that with the huge excitement that this model caused even before its official premiere, all the first batches of Redmi K50 Pro will be instantly sold out.
The smartphone received a flat screen Samsung AMOLED 4E with a diagonal of 6.67 inches, a resolution of 3200 x 1440 pixels (like the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra) and a frame rate of 120 Hz. The company calls this display the most expensive ever used in Redmi smartphones. The screen is equipped with a color temperature sensor, supports Dolby Vision HDR technology and is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus tempered glass.
Despite the fact that Dimensity 9000 does not get as hot as Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, the developers have provided a large cooling system with a 3950 mm vapor chamber2. In a real gaming test with Genshin Impact for an hour at 59 fps and a room temperature of 25°C, the smartphone reached 46°C at its hottest spot. This is a good result. Especially considering that Redmi K50 Pro is not presented as a gaming model.
Redmi K50 Pro is equipped with a 5000 mAh battery and a proprietary P1 chip like Xiaomi 12 Pro. The smartphone supports 120W charging, and it takes only 19 minutes to fully charge the battery.
The main sensor of the main camera is Samsung ISOCELL HM2 with a resolution of 108 megapixels. The module with it is equipped with an optical stabilization system. There is also a module with an 8-megapixel sensor and an ultra-wide-angle lens with a viewing angle of 119 °, and a third module with a 2-megapixel sensor is designed for macro photography.
The front camera of the model is with a 20-megapixel Sony IMX596 sensor. Also in the configuration of the smartphone are Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and NFC 3.0 modules, stereo speakers, a side fingerprint scanner. Despite the use of a 5000 mAh battery, the smartphone turned out to be quite thin – the body thickness is 8.48 mm.
