The Redmi K40 Gaming Edition is here with Dimensity 1200, 12GB of RAM

27 April 2021
Redmi's first gaming phone has everything you'd expect it to.

    Overall much better than Redmi K40 / POCO F3. I was surprised to see the Dimensity 1200 having better GPU performance compared to its predecessor, Dimensity 1000+ despite using the equivalent GPU and being on par with the overclocked Adreno 650. I'm interested to see whether the speakers are actually better or just a marketing stunt. I'd also like to see if there's decent custom ROM support, considering Xiaomi Mediatek phones have recently gained some traction.

      At least rear design is very nice, better than rog, black shark and other

        "gaming phone" has no jack and uses slower ddr4x ram.
        should have chosen better cpu.

          Speaking of xiaomi, I bet review of 11 Ultra may be published today.
          They have already the battery results posted.

                Cool phone. I'd like to have one but why is there Fighting written on the back of it ?

                      300USD for all that?? dayum

                        Aierlan, 27 Apr 2021Looks good and priced competitively although a little more ... moreGo get your self that gt neo then and stop comparing every phone out there with it. It's not even a gaming phone that realme gt neo as it dont have the gaming buttons and dont have that good amoled screen and the size of the battery also. It also dont have some special cooling system

                        Gaming phones are for people who play games and need these added gaming buttons.

                            Brands should realize that all high end phones should come with this kind of cooling.
                            Not only the "gaming phones".

                              But yeah it's a bit dumb to make a gaming phone without headphone jack as sounds are one of the more important things in games and especially in shooter games where you dont want the wireless headphones that have a bit of delay in sound that can cause problems in gaming.

                                    They can make the small one and sell only 1000 unit in 3 months.
                                    Or make the right size (which is they did) and sell 10.000.000 in 3 months.

                                      Ryse, 27 Apr 2021I'd go for the base version if that was it's pric... moreIt won't be anywhere near the same price. May be a China only release but of course the price will be much higher if it does get a global release
