Redmi reveals first details about the K80 Pro

Today, on a live broadcast on Douyin, Redmi Brand General Manager Wang Teng and Product Manager Hu Xinxin gave new exposure to the much-anticipated Redmi K80 Pro phone. To be positioned with a starting launch price of about 4,000 yuan, it is expected that the Redmi K80 Pro will bring strong performance at an impressed specification at an affordable price.

Key Highlights and Pricing

Wang Teng has just confirmed that the Redmi K80 Pro will be priced at “4,000 yuan without regrets (560 USD),” which simply means this device is going to offer all the high-end features without making one regret the price. For a comparison, last year’s Redmi K70 Pro arrived with a starting price of 3,299 yuan for the base variant (12GB + 256GB) and went up to 4,399 yuan for the highest configuration (24GB + 1TB). I guess with K80 Pro, Redmi upscales the specs a bit and bumps up the price slightly to reflect the upgrades being made.

Also, he answered the popular question of many users about whether there would be at least a small-screen version of the K80 series. So, Wang Teng responded very kindly to compact-fans that there will not be any small-screen model in the K80 lineup.
