The Xiaomi Redmi K40 series is set to arrive on February 25 and today the brand released a new launch teaser revealing the phones’ camera setup. We’re looking at an ‘AI triple camera’ that comes with two large cameras, positioned vertically, nestled between them two small horizontal holes – one for a camera, the other for a microphone, but that could also be nothing, as one of the holes on the back of the Mi 10T series.

The Redmi K40 phones have been confirmed to run on the Snapdragon 888 chipset, however, a leak has suggested that the flagship platform is for the K40 Pro only, while the vanilla Redmi K40 will have a Snapdragon 870 chip. Other specs, disclosed by TENAA, include a 4,500mAh battery and Android 11 out of the box.
The same TENAA listings also revealed that the K40 series will have a flat AMOLED panel with the fingerprint scanner underneath and a single center punch hole for the single selfie camera. Expectations are that the event will also see a third variant called the Redmi K40S, but other than the rumored name we don’t know anything else about this phone.
