Emir BardakçıAccording to our researchs; recent developments from Mi Code and the GSMA Database have revealed model numbers and internal codenames for Xiaomi’s upcoming REDMI K90 and POCO F8 series—information of particular interest for industry watchers monitoring flagship trends. These findings highlight two distinct performance tiers in the next-generation lineup, each built around different Snapdragon processors and model configurations. Xiaomi’s familiar dual-flagship strategy is clearly alive and well, appealing directly to high-performance and value-oriented consumer segments.
POCO F8 Ultra and REDMI K90 Pro Specifications
At the high end, the POCO F8 Ultra (model: 25102PCBEG) and REDMI K90 Pro (25102RKBEC) share the internal codename “Myron” Both are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, setting a new benchmark for performance within Xiaomi’s ecosystem. These models are positioned to compete directly with market-leading flagship devices.
POCO F8 and REDMI K90 Specifications
For customers seeking flagship performance at a more accessible price point, the POCO F8 Pro (2510DPC44G) and REDMI K90 (2510DRK44C)—codenamed “Annibale”—incorporate the Snapdragon 8 Elite 1 processor. This ensures robust performance for demanding applications without the full premium price tag.
No Leica This Year
According to newly leaked information, the Xiaomi and Leica partnership has ended in the new generation of phones. Now REDMI will come without Leica but with much more powerful new camera features. In co-branded phones, there is an additional cost of $ 3-5 per device, apart from the brand license. Therefore, collaborations with logos have been found to be inefficient in terms of cost.
Model Number Breakdown
The model numbers provide further clarity on regional availability and hardware variations:
- POCO F8 Ultra: Model 25102PCBEG, Internal P11U, Codename “Myron“
- REDMI K90 Pro: Model 25102RKBEC, Internal P11U, Codename “Myron“
- POCO F8 Pro: Model 2510DPC44G, Internal P11, Codename “Annibale“
- REDMI K90: Model 2510DRK44C, Internal P11, Codename “Annibale“
Launch Timeline
Based on Xiaomi’s established launch patterns, the REDMI K90 series is expected to debut in China in late 2025, with the POCO F8 series following globally. This staggered release aligns with the company’s strategy to maximize market impact in each region.
Why so fast? My Poco F7 pro would be dump early😭
The other mid range compromise is the lesser capable camera sensors. instead of the one inch size, smaller sized?
The other sub units, GPU, and radios might not be the highest specifications? Wi-Fi. etc.
As usual for these brands, we value the infrared output.
When the camera zoom fits seamlessly throughout the whole zoom range, this is desirable. We do not need to know which of the many lens is being used.
Easy macro zoom is better. Continuous without conscious need to switch lens.
Good to know that the German authorizations are not beneficial enough, compared to the in-house standards.
The independent testing standards might show the extra glare and flare events will not be there as usual?
