Summary

  • Digital Chat Station says Redmi’s next K100 is being tested with a 200MP main camera and a 50MP 60mm telephoto lens with OIS and telephoto macro from 10cm.
  • The leak pairs that camera setup with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a 6.59-inch display, wireless charging and an expected ultra-wide camera.
  • Earlier tips pointed to a 1.5K high-refresh screen, an 8,000mAh battery and 100W wired and wireless charging, alongside an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, dual speakers and IP68/69 protection.
  • Redmi is still expected to launch the K90 Ultra and Note 17 series first, with the K100 lineup likely arriving in September for the Chinese market.
  • A telephoto lens could help the K100 stand out against rival compact flagships, which the tipster said may skip dedicated zoom cameras.
