Emir BardakçıXiaomi has officially confirmed that both the REDMI K80 Ultra smartphone and the company’s first flagship tablet, the REDMI K Pad, will launch equipped with MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400+ processor. This move positions both devices as serious contenders in their respective segments, delivering high-end performance at highly competitive price points. For customers seeking flagship-level hardware, the K80 Ultra is set to dominate the 3,000 yuan segment, while the K Pad marks Xiaomi’s entry into the premium compact tablet market. By standardizing on the flagship chipset across both devices, Xiaomi is signaling a clear commitment to performance and consistency throughout its product ecosystem.
REDMI K80 Ultra Raises the Bar for Flagship Smartphones
The REDMI K80 Ultra features a robust metal mid-frame and incorporates 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor technology—both significant upgrades over previous models. General Manager Wang Teng has indicated that all peripheral components, from speakers to vibration motors, have been fully optimized to deliver a premium user experience.
K Pad: A New Standard for Compact Flagship Tablets
The REDMI K Pad arrives with an advanced high-resolution LCD panel using dual IC drivers. Although it leverages LCD tech, the cost and engineering complexity rival that of flagship OLED displays. According to Wang Teng, extensive market research was conducted to determine the optimal size, ensuring that the K Pad delivers gaming and multitasking performance on par with larger devices, while maintaining portability.
The inclusion of MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400+—featuring an upgraded X925 super-core clocked at 3.7GHz—represents a significant performance leap. Both devices are positioned to offer exceptional capabilities in gaming, productivity, and AI-enhanced applications.
Lu Weibing has also hinted at an upcoming live broadcast event, where further product details will be revealed. The K Pad is poised to enter direct competition with other premium tablets in the market, underscoring Xiaomi’s ambition in this segment.
For users looking to maximize their experience, tools such as HyperOSUpdates.com and the MemeOS Enhancer app on the Play Store enable enhanced system updates and access to additional features, complementing the capabilities of these new flagship devices.
By launching the REDMI K80 Ultra and K Pad simultaneously, Xiaomi is reinforcing its ecosystem approach, ensuring that customers receive consistent, top-tier performance whether they select a smartphone or a tablet.
