Redmi K40 Gaming to have an OLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate
The Redmi K40 gaming phone will be the first handset of the Xiaomi brand, dedicated to mobile gamers. While being part of the K40 series, it is an entirely new phone with completely different specs from the currently available ones, and the latest feature we have learned is the top-notch display.
Redmi will equip its new phone with an OLED with a 120Hz refresh rate and all the other latest bells and whistles that suit a flagship-tier phone.
The new panel is 10-bit, meaning it will have 1.067 billion colors in theory, not like the 8-bit screens with 16 million colors, used only by cavemen from the far year of 2020. In practice, this means better color reproduction and smoother transition.
The brightness will have 8192 levels allowing it to adapt ever so precisely in every condition imaginable. Other specs include HDR10+ support, DCI-P3 color gamut, and rumors claim it will be packed onto a 6.43” panel.
The official unveiling is in four days, on April 27, and we expect more specs and features to be teased until then.

You do realize that they were poking fun at that very thing you're criticizing, right?

"not like the 8-bit screens with 16 million colors, used only by cavemen from the far year of 2020" there are'nt any apps that will differentiate the 10-bit color. @Gsmarena - please validate such 'marketing' statements ...
