The Redmi K90 Pro is rumoured to be in development as the successor to the Redmi K80 Pro, which debuted last November. The handset has now allegedly surfaced on a benchmarking site, which suggests several of its specifications and also hints towards its impending debut. It is listed with an octa-core SoC, which is expected to be Qualcomm's new flagship mobile chipset. The phone is listed with 16GB of RAM and is expected to ship with Android 16.

The core configuration hints towards this being the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, which has an identical architecture. The listed model number corroborates it to be the Redmi K90 Pro.
The octa-core processor may be paired with approximately 14.66GB of RAM, which could be marketed as 16GB. The purported Redmi K90 Pro is listed as running Android 16, which means it could ship with Xiaomi's new HyperOS 3. It has a motherboard with “canoe” as the identifier.
Benchmark scores of the Redmi K90 Pro give us an idea of what to expect from the handset in terms of performance upon its launch. In the Geekbench 6.5.0 for Android AArch64 benchmarking test, it registered single and multi-core scores of 3,559 and 11,060 points, respectively.
These scores indicate that the purported handset will deliver a similar performance as the new Xiaomi 17, at least on paper, which is powered by the same chipset. Its Geekbench scores are also around the same mark, coming in at 3,621 (single-core) and 11,190 (multi-core).
While its launch schedule is yet to be revealed, previous trends suggest that the Redmi K90 Pro may debut in the fourth quarter of 2025, possibly in November. It could be introduced as the Poco F8 Ultra in the global markets.
