The Redmi K70 series has made its official debut in China. The Redmi K70 Pro, Redmi K70, and Redmi K70E are the new phones in the line, and they all have outstanding technology at pricing that are comparatively average. In actuality, the Redmi K70 Pro and Redmi K70 are full-fledged flagship phones, comparable in price to the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S23 and Google Pixel 8, yet they are priced almost half as high. As stunning as these new phones are, there’s little likelihood that you’ll be able to purchase them outside of China very soon.

The Redmi K70 Pro has the best specs available, with up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, Qualcomm’s most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Chip, and a true 2x telephoto. The pro is also available with a limited-edition paint job called “Redmi K70 Pro Automobili Lamborghini Squadra Corse.” Both the pro and non-pro Redmi K70s share the majority of the same hardware.
