Extreme Performance:
What makes Redmi K50i 5G an extreme performer is the flagship processor that drives it. The heart of the phone is the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 processor, which is built using the TSMC N5 (5nm-class) process, and comes with four ARM Cortex A78 super cores, and four ARM Cortex A55 efficiency cores, striking the perfect balance between power-packed performance and power efficiency.
The result is a processor that is capable of handling anything and everything that is thrown at it and delivers Antutu scores that are higher than almost every flagship chipset out there.
Aiding this ultimate performance are speedy LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, ensuring speedy and smooth multitasking. Whether it is multitasking between dozens of apps, editing videos and images, or getting through intense sessions of BGMI, Genshin impact and Asphalt racing, Redmi K50i 5G is exceptionally comfortable with extreme performance.
The phone comes with LiquidCool 2.0, featuring a 7-layer graphite sheet which ensures that it stays cool no matter how hefty the tasks may be.
Extremely smooth Display:
Adding an extra edge to this performance is a top of 16.7cm (6.6) full HD+ liquid Field Fringe Switching (FFS) display. A first in a Redmi device to support Dolby Vision™, with 100% DCI-P3 gamut coverage, support for 1 Billion colors, and a market-leading 144Hz 7-stage adaptive refresh rate.
The display can smartly switch refresh rates depending on the content being shown on it, optimizing battery life. Field Fringe Switching enables the display to deliver better light transmittance, better color reproduction, and wider viewing angles, all while keeping it power efficient.
Redmi K50i 5G delivers exceptional multimedia as well. The phone comes with support from Dolby Atmos®, as well as Hi-Res wired and wireless audio.
On board are dual stereo speakers for terrific sound along with a 3.5 mm audio jack for those who want to use wired headphones with the device.
It supports a 3.5mm audio jack too – it can not only support regular earphones but even powerful headphones, thanks to its output capacity of 500 mv at 32 ohms. Audiophiles can leave their DACs behind! Taking the experience a notch higher, Redmi K50i 5G also comes with a dual voice assistant making it a perfectly intelligent, entertainment partner.
Redmi K50i 5G also comes with tools that let users create their own cutting-edge content. The phone delivers top-notch photography performance thanks to a triple camera arrangement, spearheaded by a flagship level 64-megapixel main sensor, backed by an 8-megapixel ultrawide for a wider perspective.
No matter how extreme the conditions, these cameras will deliver sterling colors and richly detailed images and videos.
Settings like focus peaking, long exposure, time burst, and clone, make these cameras a content creator’s dream. What’s more, the power of the Image 780 Image Signal Processing means that one can actually shoot, edit and share right from the device itself.
Redmi K50i 5G is in fact ‘India-ready 5 G device in the truest sense of the term. The first Redmi device to support 12 5G bands which have been tested with impressive results, on 5G networks in an out-of-lab set up in collaboration with Reliance Jio.
“5G has for long been just a word or a number on spec sheets. But on Redmi K50i 5G, it is 5G not only in name and performance but in terms of actually a real and live tested functionality,” said Raghu Reddy.
Incidentally, Redmi K50i 5G not only packs in the latest connectivity but also supports the most traditional one as well – it comes with infra-red support, a Redmi staple that lets users use the phone as a remote!
This high-performing device lasts for quite a while too, thanks to a large 5080 mAh battery, with a 67W Turbo Charger worth INR 1999 included free in the box.
The large battery will comfortably get through a day and more of usage, and thanks to the charger, can be fully recharged in a mere 46 minutes. In fact, just 15 minutes of charging should be able to see most users through a day.
Using the phone itself is a breeze, as the phone runs on Android 12 with the iconic MIUI 13 interface, which provides users multiple features even while giving them the space to explore.
All of this lies inside a beautifully crafted and rock-solid design. The Redmi K50i 5G comes with Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 protection and also an IP53 rating, making it a great companion for extreme conditions.
The phone comes in three eye-catching shades – Quick Silver, Stealth Black, and Phantom Blue.
