A rumour from last month stated that Redmi would soon release the K50i 5G in India, which would be a rebranded Redmi Note 11T Pro that had previously arrived in China in May. Today's rumour ups the ante by claiming that the Redmi Note 11T Pro+, which also arrived in China in May, is actually the K50i 5G under a different name.
However, there's still more! The launch will take place on July 20, according to the same source, and the first sale will happen on July 22. Do take this rumour with a grain of salt since it hasn't been verified yet. Having said that, Redmi and Poco enjoy playing the rebranding game, so it wouldn't shock anyone if this ended up actually happening.
The Redmi Note 11T Pro and Redmi Note 11T Pro+ are essentially the same phone over in China, with the exception that the former has a 5,080 mAh battery and 67W charging while the latter has a 4,400 mAh cell and 120W charging. It will therefore have a 6.6-inch 1080x2460 144 Hz IPS LCD touchscreen, the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC, a triple rear camera system (64 MP main, 8 MP ultrawide, and 2 MP macro), and a 16 MP selfie camera, regardless of which of these the Redmi K50i 5G is based on.
According to the rumour of the day, the Redmi K50i will be offered in two RAM/storage configurations: 6/128GB and 8/256GB. Phantom Blue, Stealth Black, and Quick Silver will be the available colours.
