The Xiaomi Redmi K60 will be released soon. The latest Redmi K60 will be no different, as it features some of the best features you can get on a mid-range phone. At the same time, rumors say it is using MediaTek’s new SoC, the MT8200, which could support more than 1200 MHz GPU frequency and integrate a dual camera setup and 5G modem into a single chipset as well as a QHD screen display. Some say a MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chipset will be included in the device.

The performance of the Redmi K60 will be no less than that of the current offerings. The MT8200 SoC integrates a dual-core Arm Cortex-A77 CPU, which is said to be clocked at more than 1200 MHz, with a 14nm manufacturing process. In addition, it also integrates a tri-cluster GPU (MediaTek’s first) with up to 760 MHz frequency. This is more powerful than the Snapdragon 730 and has more power. Thus, it can play high-end games better, but Qualcomm-based phones are still much better in gaming performance.

The device is tipped to have a 6.67-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an AMOLED panel, making the device quite sleek. The device will have a glass sandwich design, and some rumors say it will support 30W wireless charging. The phone is tipped to have 12 GB of RAM and a 256 GB internal storage option, among other things.

In recent news, the iOQO Neo7 SE will also run on the same chipset. The phone also features a 5500 mAh battery and supports 67W fast charging, which gives it a competitive advantage in the market. There are rumors about the K60 getting dynamic island-type notifications like the Apple iPhone 14 Pro, but nothing is officially confirmed. The phone will probably run on Android 13.

In terms of camera, the device will probably support a 64 MP primary camera along with 8 MP and 2 MP secondary cameras and a 20 MP front selfie shooter. The device can also support 5G connectivity, according to some sources. The Redmi K60 is also likely to feature face unlock like other Xiaomi phones.

Conclusion

So, nothing is yet confirmed, but we can expect the phone to be released soon, and it will probably be launched by the end of this year or at the start of next year.
