Xiaomi is sure to release the Xiaomi 14 phones with the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor as soon as it is released. Qualcomm will hold its annual launch event from October 24-26, after which the new phones will come. But it's not just Xiaomi, Redmi will also be launching Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processors.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 comes in a 1+3+2+2 configuration, probably with one Cortex-X4 core, five Cortex-A720 cores split into two clusters, and two Cortex-A520 cores for efficiency. The high-power Cortex-X4 core is said to be clocked at 3.18 GHz in its current form, up from the previous engineering test frequency of 3.4 GHz. Nevertheless, there are also rumours of a Cortex-X4 core of up to 3.7 GHz.
My favourite Chinese blogger put up the above post this morning, sorry for the Google translator, but it's more understandable as a small-chair-ladder-haziko-human-snowman combo. The post is about the Redmi K70 series. From it we learn that the whole series comes with a straight 2K screen. I prefer that to rounded edges. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor is nothing new, but the 5,120 mAh battery with 120W wired fast charging is not so much. But that's to be expected. Coming back to the screen, it was even revealed that it will be done without a plastic bezel and will only have a metal frame around the edge. Well, I'll be curious about that.
Three models of the Redmi K70E, Redmi K70 and Redmi K70 Pro were released in the IMEI database last month, these were the 23117RK66C, 2311DRK48C and 23113RKC6C models. The numbers "2311" in the model number, indicates November 2023. So the SD 8G3 will come at the end of October, followed by the Redmi K70 series in November.
Contrary to Xiaomi's practice, not all Redmi K70s will get the SD 8G3 processor. Further rumours suggest that the regular K70 will get 8G2, the K70E will get 7+G2 and only the K70 Pro will get the new one. But why is this news for us? Because now, as before, the Redmi K series will be the "T" version of Xiaomi's main line. Like the Xiaomi 13T Pro .
