Ahead of its imminent launch, Redmi already teased the Gaming Edition confirming some of its specs and features. The smartphone will feature shoulder triggers dedicated for gaming as well as a 4,860 sq. mm vapor chamber for 40% better heat dissipation. The shoulder triggers are rounded to better match the curvature of the body.
For the camera department, the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition will use a 64MP Sony IMX686 main sensor and a 20MP Sony IMX596 lens for the selfie camera. In addition, it will also feature an anti-flicker sensor for real-time exposure adjustment.
Confirmed specs for the display include an FHD+ OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, 480Hz touch sampling rate, and a 1920Hz PWM high-frequency dimming to reduce the stress on the eyes. The screen has bagged a DisplayMate A+ certificate as well as achieved 15 quality records, and it will be protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.
