Redmi K50 Pro will use the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC, as confirmed by Redmi, while the Pro+ model will get the flagship Dimensity 9000 chipset.

As for other features, the Pro phones are expected to feature a triple rear camera setup with a primary 108-megapixel sensor. It’ll also offer up to 120W fast charging support, and 12GB RAM. The display will most likely be an FHD+ AMOLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate. Renders of the K50 Pro were leaked recently showcasing a flat display, hole-punch cutout, and triple rear cameras.

Coming to the design teaser, Redmi K50 series can be seen with what is being called the new nano-microcrystalline rear casing with sparkling ice crystal elements. The design seems to be refracting the light that the back panel receives for a unique look. We can also see the triple rear camera setup housed in a circular module on the back panel.
