Redmi K90 And POCO F8 Series Performance Tiers and Chipset Details

Xiaomi is sticking to a two-tier strategy, offering users both value and performance:

  • Redmi K90 and POCO F8 Pro
    • Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite 1
    • Offers flagship-like performance without reaching ultra-premium prices
    • Aimed at users who want high specs but can skip the latest chipset
  • Redmi K90 Pro and POCO F8 Ultra
    • Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (expected to launch in Sept 2025)
    • These models target users looking for top-tier flagship experience
    • Likely to feature enhanced camera and performance upgrades

Redmi K90 And POCO F8 Series Camera: Leica Partnership Ends

One major change this year is the end of the Xiaomi-Leica partnership for the Redmi and POCO phones. Although previous phones carried the Leica branding, this time, Xiaomi is choosing to drop it for cost efficiency.

  • Xiaomi reportedly saves $3-5 per unit without the co-branding.
  • New camera features are still expected to be powerful, even without Leica.

Redmi K90 And POCO F8 Series Global Launch Timelines

According to the usual release pattern, The Redmi K90 series is expected to launch in China around late 2025, likely in October or November. After that, Xiaomi will bring these phones to global markets under the POCO F8 series.

The POCO F8 Pro and F8 Ultra are likely to launch in the first quarter of 2026. A standard POCO F8 model may arrive later, possibly as a rebranded version of the Redmi Turbo 5 Pro, which is rumored to launch in Q2 2026.

With the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 yet to be officially released, Xiaomi’s timing seems perfect for delivering a new generation of performance-first smartphones. Fans of the K-series and POCO lineup have a lot to look forward to in the coming months.
