Xiaomi has officially launched the Redmi K100 Pro and K100 Pro Max in China. Both smartphones bring flagship Snapdragon chipsets, high-refresh-rate OLED displays, large batteries, and 200MP main cameras.

The phone pairs it with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. It also uses a 5,150mm² ice-cooled circulating pump, along with Xiaomi’s D2 discrete graphics chip and T1+ signal booster chip for better performance and connectivity.
For photography, the Redmi K100 Pro features a 200MP primary rear camera with OIS, a 50MP telephoto camera, and an 8MP ultra-wide camera. A 32MP camera handles selfies and video calls.
The phone packs an 8,580mAh Jinshajiang battery with 26% silicon content and an energy density of 945Wh/L. It supports 100W wired and 50W wireless charging, along with 27W wired and 22.5W wireless reverse charging.

The camera setup also gets a major upgrade. The Redmi K100 Pro Max features a 200MP primary camera with OIS, a 50MP periscope telephoto camera, and a 50MP ultra-wide camera.
Powering the phone is a massive 9,070mAh battery with 16% silicon content. It supports 100W wired charging, 50W wireless charging, 27W wired reverse charging, and 22.5W wireless reverse charging.
