As you can see in the images above, the Redmi K30 will have four cameras on the back, all housed within a large circle. Below the camera module, we find a dual-LED flash as well. On the side of the phone will be a fingerprint sensor, embedded inside the power button. This is certainly a surprise, as the Redmi K20 and K20 Pro both feature optical in-display fingerprint sensors. Moving on to the front, we find a pill-shaped hole-punch cutout with two selfie cameras.
While the official teasers have given us a clear look at the phone's design, Redmi hasn't revealed the key tech specs of the smartphone yet. Rumors suggest the Redmi K30 will be powered by a Snapdragon 730G chipset, while the Redmi K30 Pro, which is tipped to arrive early next year, will apparently have a Snapdragon 855+ under the hood.
In the camera department, the Redmi K30 is expected to feature a 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and an 8MP telephoto lens. The fourth sensor on the back of the phone will likely be a depth sensor for portrait shots.
