This morning, a new Xiaomi smartphone with model number M2011K2C was spotted on MIIT certification and obtained network access permission.
According to Digital Chat Station, the M2011K2C is a smartphone based on the new platform. Based on this speculation, the M2011K2C seems to be a new number of the Redmi K40 series.
According to reports, Qualcomm will release the Snapdragon 875G on December 1st, and a new chipset from the Snapdragon 7xx series is also on the way.
As Qualcomm’s close partner, Xiaomi may be the first commercial vendor of the Snapdragon 875G and upcoming Snapdragon 7xx series chipsets. Last year, Redmi took the lead in launching the Snapdragon 765G by introducing the Redmi K30 5G.
This year, Redmi may be able to win the debut of upcoming Snapdragon chipsets once again. The first model may be the Redmi K40, so it is not ruled out that M2011K2C is the Redmi K40.
In last year’s Redmi K30 series, the K30 was powered by the Snapdragon 7 series chipset, while the K30 Pro features the flagship Snapdragon 8 series chipset. This year, things may remain the same, and the Redmi K40 may feature the new Snapdragon 7 series chipset, while the K40 Pro may feature SD 875G.
There is no more news about the Redmi K40 series, but the launch is expected before the end of this year.
