Redmi has officially unveiled the K80 Ultra, joining the flagship category with top-tier specs across the board. It features a brighter screen, improved thermals, and the latest MediaTek chip — all aimed at high-performance users. This article will discuss everything about the latest Redmi K80 Ultra, including its specifications and availability.

Redmi K80 Ultra Overview

Display and Build

The phone sports a 6.83-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution (2772 × 1280 pixels) and a 144Hz refresh rate. It offers 480Hz touch sampling and reaches up to 3200 nits brightness. For eye protection and color accuracy, the panel supports Dolby Vision, HDR10+, 2560Hz PWM dimming, and DC dimming. Protection comes from Xiaomi Shield Glass.

The body uses a four-curved wrapped metal frame, a fiberglass back panel, and a metal finish around the camera setup. It’s also IP68 rated, so dust and water resistance are included.

Performance and Software

It runs on the Dimensity 9400+ chipset (3nm) paired with Immortalis-G925 MC12 GPU. You get options of 12GB or 16GB LPDDR5X RAM with up to 1TB UFS 4.1 storage. The phone boots HyperOS 2 based on Android 15. Redmi claims an AnTuTu score of 3.24 million, which shows its power on paper at least.

Gaming and Cooling

There’s a Discrete D2 graphics chip onboard, and the phone can push up to 144FPS gameplay. The thermal setup includes a 3D Ice Cycle Cold Pump and a 6500mm² concave-convex vapor chamber to keep things under control.

Camera System

The rear includes a 50MP main sensor (1/1.55″, f/1.88, OIS), an 8MP ultrawide (119°), and LED flash. You can shoot up to 8K video with the back setup. For selfies and calls, the 20MP front camera handles 1080p at up to 60fps.

Battery and Charging

Powering all of this is a 7,410mAh battery built on high-density silicon-carbon tech. Charging is handled by a 100W wired fast charger, which should deliver quick top-ups without a problem.
