In addition, the company revealed that the pop-up shoulder button gets its inspiration from the maglev train. The sleek and portable appearance of this button is worth talking about. Also, the keys are customized with high-quality neodymium iron boron magnets, which can never be demagnetized.

As a gaming smartphone, there must be provision for heat dissipation. The Redmi K40 gaming version comes with the necessary VC liquid cooling for e-sports. It also uses 11540mm² large-area graphene which takes care of all heating issues. The heat also dissipates via the antenna area.

Under the hood, this device will have a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chip. The body is very thin and it uses a side fingerprint sensor. There is also a circle of LED lights around the lens module which gives it a gaming appearance. According to reports, this device will officially hit the road on April 27th.

On the display end, this smartphone will come with a Samsung E4 OLED. This single punch-hole display has a high 144Hz refresh rate. To keep its lights on will be a huge built-in 5000 mAh super-capacity battery that supports 67W ultra-fast flash charging.

In addition, Lu Weibing once said: “This time we will still implement Redmi efficiency under the brand mission of the ultimate cost-effectiveness, and use a more kind price to provide professional gaming experience to the public, breaking through the bottom line of the price of gaming mobile phones. Use more hardcore games. Experience and a more extreme flagship price-performance ratio, declare war on the old gaming mobile phone industry.”
