The Chinese smartphone brand Redmi after a long wait has finally revealed the launch date for its upcoming flagship phone in India. The smartphones will be part of the new K series and have been monikered Redmi K20 Pro and Redmi K20. These two handsets have already been launched in China, on May 28th this year.

There are several phenomenal features that this smartphone packs and it also brings several firsts as a brand for Redmi. For starters, this is the first time Redmi has deviated from its sub 15k-20k smartphone and come up with a handset that features premium hardware, specification and more. The phone will take on flagship handsets from popular brands like OnePlus, Oppo and others.

Redmi further is calling Redmi K20 series as ‘flagship killer 2.0’. We already know the premium features on board such as the Snapdragon 855 chipset, pop-up selfie camera, AMOLED full-screen display and lastly an equally powerful 48MP camera to complete the package. However, it is the extremely competitive pricing that tilts things in Redmi K20’s favour.
