Redmi K30i 5G appears to have a design that mimics Redmi K30 5G
Redmi K30i 5G seems to have debuted as Xiaomi's most affordable 5G Redmi smartphone. While the Chinese company is yet to officially launch the new smartphone, it's already listed for sale online in China. The Redmi K30i 5G appears as a watered down variant of the Redmi K30 5G that was launched in December. It mimics the design of the earlier 5G phone. This means that you'll get a quad rear camera setup and a dual hole-punch display on the Redmi K30i 5G. However, there are some differences in the specifications.
The Redmi K30i 5G price is set at CNY 1,899 (roughly Rs. 20,200) for the single, 6GB RAM + 128GB storage configuration, as per a listing on JD.com. Xiaomi hasn't yet made any formal announcement regarding the new phone. However, it is currently on presale on the e-commerce site, with its sale scheduled for June 7.
Gadgets 360 has reached out to Xiaomi to get clarity on the new model and will update this space as and when the company responds.
To recall, the Redmi K30 5G was launched in China late last year with a starting price of CNY 1,999 (roughly Rs. 21,300).
