Overview
- Redmi confirmed on June 24 that it will unveil the K90 Ultra in China on June 30, with the company publishing official design and spec teasers ahead of the launch.
- The phone is listed with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and an active cooling fan that Redmi says can cut device temperature by up to 10°C in 100 seconds to support sustained performance.
- Redmi claims the K90 Ultra can sustain 60 fps at top graphics for 60 minutes and 144 fps in a MOBA for up to 180 minutes at 30°C, but those long-duration performance figures have not yet been independently verified.
- Official reveals show a 6.83-inch slim-bezel display, aluminum alloy frame, dual rear cameras, a Space Silver finish, full-grade dust and water protection, and a target price near CNY 3,000; leaked details also point to an 8,550 mAh battery with 100W charging.
- The K90 Ultra reflects Xiaomi’s strategy of pushing higher-end hardware into lower price bands and could reshape value-focused gaming phones if reviewers confirm Redmi’s thermal and battery claims.
