The Redmi K80 and K80 Pro have hit the headlines several times in the past with details about a few specifications.
There were also talks about the manufacturer opting for a third variant Redmi K80e in the lineup but now this is not expected to be so. The Geekbench platform recently listed the Redmi K80 Pro revealing its processor and RAM along with the operating system.
Geekbench Listing
As is the case with any smartphone listed on the Geekbench platform, the K80 Pro listing has been spotted with only the model number 24122RKC7C and not its moniker.
The listing confirms that the smartphone will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. It also confirms that the handset will be equipped with Android 15 OS and 16 GB RAM.
Expected Redmi K80, K80 Pro Specifications
According to the tipoff by Experience More, both smartphones share a few key details while there are noteworthy differences in the specifications as well.
Redmi has already confirmed that the handsets will have a LTPS panel with a flat display manufactured by TCL Huaxing and a resolution of 2K. The displays will offer eye protection with polarized light technology and DC dimming. They will also encompass an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, an IP 68 rating, and a metal middle frame.
One point of difference is the processor incorporated in the Redmi K80. The smartphone will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor.
The other major difference between the two smartphones is in the camera department. Both variants have the same OmniVision OV50 50 MP primary shooter on the rear panel and a 20 MP camera in the front for selfies and video calls. On the back, the base K80 variant will additionally have an 8 MP ultra-wide shooter and a 2 MP macro lens whereas the K80 Pro will comprise an ISOCELL JN5 50 MP telephoto lens with 2.6x optical zoom and a 32 MP ultra-wide camera.
