Xiaomi introduced the flagships Redmi K70 and K70 Pro on HyperOS
Miscellaneous / / December 06, 2023
Plus the more affordable K70E - for those who don’t need the top-end Snapdragon and the latest Xiaomi camera.
Xiaomi held a presentation in China, where it celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Redmi line, which soon grew into an independent brand. At the presentation they showed the new Redmi K70 series, which included three devices: the basic K70, the top-end K70 Pro and the simpler K70E model. This is the first generation of flagships that will receive HyperOS "from the box".
Redmi K70 Pro
The smartphone has a new design with minimal frames around the screen: 1.6 mm at the top, 1.7 mm at the edges and 2.4 mm at the bottom. The 6.67-inch screen is covered with 1.3 mm thick Deco protective glass - according to the manufacturer, it is as transparent as possible and ensures accurate color reproduction. The display resolution is 2K, peak brightness is 4000 nits, and the sensor reading frequency is 2160 Hz.
The smartphone received the top-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor - the same as in the line Xiaomi 14.
The main camera is a 50 MP Light Hunter 800 (presumably a simplified version of the Light Hunter 900 from the Xiaomi 14 line - the partnership with Leica is not mentioned here). This is a 1/1.55-inch module with optical image stabilization. It is capable of taking 30 photos per second and recording video in 8K. It is complemented by Light Hunter 400, a 50 MP portrait module with 2x zoom, and an unnamed 12 MP wide-angle camera.
The 5,000 mAh battery supports 120 W fast charging - with a suitable unit, you can charge your smartphone to 100% in 18 minutes.
The back panel is covered with textured glass, the side frames are metal. Available in three colors: a matte blue-green, as well as white and black with a “corduroy” texture, the design of which is inspired by moonstones. The thickness of the case is 7.95 mm (excluding the camera).
Also, on the occasion of the anniversary, a special version of the smartphone was announced, created in collaboration with Lamborghini: K70 Pro Champion Edition. It will be available in two versions: yellow and green.
Redmi K70
The base model retains the design of the K70 Pro: it has the same body with a metal frame, but the screen glass is curved on four sides. The characteristics of the display itself are the same: 2K resolution, 4000 nits brightness, 2160 Hz sensor response.
There is the same 5,000 mAh battery with 120 W fast charging, but the processor is the previous generation: Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, as in Xiaomi 13. The main camera module is the same 50 megapixel Light Hunter 800; the characteristics of other modules have not been disclosed.
The smartphone will be available in the same colors as the Pro version, plus a matte purple option.
Redmi K70E
The most affordable smartphone in the line has a 6.67-inch screen with a 1.5K resolution, a peak brightness of 1800 nits and a sensor response of 2160 Hz. The processor here is Dimensity 8300 Ultra.
The 64 MP main camera supports optical stabilization; the capabilities of additional modules are not disclosed.
Redmi K70E received a larger 5,500 mAh battery with slightly less fast 90 W charging - charging to 100% takes 34 minutes. At the same time, the smartphone is ultra-thin: only 8.05 mm thick.
The colors are identical to the Pro version, but all three are matte without texture.

“Ham, ham” is a rare dregs. Somehow I decided to take a look, until the very end I hoped that it would all come to some kind of intelligible meaning. But no, the further it goes, the less meaning there is, and the ending is a complete facepalm 🤦🏻♀️

Wow, I would also like to post here the work of my tiler, who assembled a palm tree from 3 tiles, not a single tile was in its place and he was indignant that he would have to redo everything (( And I hung the heated towel rail, extending onto the mirror, about 15 centimeters. And soooo it will do (( Unfortunately, the photo probably didn’t survive.
When the work was done for show: 15 photos from Internet users
