Xiaomi Unveils Redmi K60 Ultra with Flagship Camera, Display, and Processor
In 2023, Xiaomi unveiled the Redmi K60 series, which includes the Redmi K60, Redmi K60E, and Redmi K60 Pro smartphones. These are now joined by the Redmi K60 Ultra, a fourth device in the series.
The Dimensity 9200+ SoC powers the Redmi K60 Ultra, which runs MIUI 14 and has up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. The 6.67" 1.5K (2,712x1,220 pixels) screen of the K60 Ultra has a 12-bit resolution, 2,600 nits.
Redmi K60 Ultra Specifications and other features:
The Redmi K60 Ultra, according to Xiaomi, has an additional graphics processor called X7 that was developed with Pixelworks and enables it to achieve a native frame rate of 144 FPS in 30 games (100+ with frame rate interpolation). There are two refresh rates available on the display: 144Hz and 480Hz for touch. Game clarity is also enhanced by the X7 chip.
Although Xiaomi hasn't specifically said if the display is LCD or OLED, it's reasonable to assume the latter given that the Redmi K60 Ultra sports an in-display fingerprint reader. The display also supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+ content and has DCI-P3 coverage.
We have a camera island at the rear that houses three cameras: an 8MP ultrawide, a 2MP macro, and a 54MP Sony IMX800 (effectively 50MP) main camera with OIS and 8K HDR10+ recording. The camera island features a metal dome DECO design, as described by Xiaomi since its edges are extended downwards. You receive a 20MP camera for selfies and video calls.
The entire gadget is powered by a 5,000 mAh battery, which, according to advertisements, can be completely charged in 19 minutes using the 120W charger that is supplied. Xiaomi used its own P1 CPU for rapid charging and G1 chip for battery management in the Redmi K60 Ultra.
The Redmi K60 Ultra's other standout features include a 5G connection, USB-C, Wi-Fi 6, and multi-purpose NFC. Additionally, it has stereo speakers, dual-band GPS, 5000mm2 stainless steel VC cooling, and NavIC. Additionally, the Redmi K60 Ultra is the first Redmi smartphone with an IP68 classification, offering it the highest degree of ingress protection available.
