Overview
The Redmi K100 launched in China on 27 October 2026 as a battery-first gaming flagship. Its headline feature is a 10,000mAh silicon-carbon battery — the largest Redmi has ever shipped — which Xiaomi says lasts up to 2.43 days, with 100W wired charging, 27W reverse wired charging and bypass charging to keep heat down during gaming. The 6.83-inch 1.5K OLED display runs at 165Hz with a 3,500-nit peak, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, and the phone is rated IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K. Performance comes from the Snapdragon 8 Elite paired with Xiaomi's dedicated D2 gaming chip for super-resolution and frame interpolation — more than 40 titles run natively at 165fps — cooled by a 3D circulating cold-pump system. Photography comes from a 50MP Light Hunter 800 main camera with OIS plus an 8MP ultrawide, and a 20MP selfie camera, while Bose-tuned stereo speakers handle audio. On the software side it runs Android 17 with HyperOS 4. It is aimed at buyers who want flagship gaming performance and multi-day battery life. No Pakistan price or launch has been announced yet — the China prices start at CNY 3,499 (12/256GB), rising to CNY 4,099 (12/512GB) and CNY 4,499 (16/512GB).

Gaming review
The Snapdragon 8 Elite plus D2 gaming chip with a 165Hz OLED display and a 10,000mAh battery make this a serious gaming phone — native 165fps in 40+ titles with active cold-pump cooling.
