The first Redmi K series device, the Redmi K20, turned out to be a runout success for the brand when it launched back in 2019. It came with a premium design, a good display, an impressive set of cameras and a powerful chipset. Also, the lineup was affordably in order to be made accessible to consumers on a tight budget.
These new Redmi offerings from the brand are the best we’ve seen from the brand so far in terms of specs. These devices are sought to deliver on all fronts, be it gaming, photography, consuming content or just day to day tasks.
We have already seen the previous K series iterations delivering great performance, and the same can be expected from the fresh K40 lineup too.
The K40 lineup is starkly different in terms of design from the previous K30 series. However, the design is nothing new as these devices look almost identical to Xiaomi’s flagship Mi 11 lineup.
Interestingly these devices ship with Samsung’s E4 luminous display tech, which first came with Xiaomi’s Mi 11. This display saves a lot of battery and is brighter and has better contrast levels than other OLED displays. In addition to the display on the K40 comes with a 120Hz refresh rate, HRD10+, MEMC and DCI-P3 colour gamut support. Not to miss, these devices come with stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos and Hi-res audio certification.
