Redmi Phone Codenamed MATISSE
Redmi had launched its first gaming phone with a focus on gaming this year, named Redmi K40 Gaming Edition, which embodies the professionalism of a gaming phone in terms of appearance, fast charging, and shoulder keys.
However, a Dimensity 1200 chip slightly limits the gaming experience of this phone, and after the announcement of the world’s first 4nm process Dimensity 9000 chip, some netizens have been expecting the Redmi K50 Gaming Enhanced Edition to pass this chip.
After the release of Xiaomi 12, the next step is the new Redmi K50 series, which has now passed the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s network entry permit. Not surprisingly, the Redmi K50 series contains several models with various processors such as the Dimensity 9000, Snapdragon 8 Gen1, and Snapdragon 870, making up the K50 universe.
Recently, a blogger broke the news that the new Redmi machine equipped with the Dimensity 9000 is codenamed MATISSE, and the heat dissipation is stacked, and the game performance scheduling is more aggressive with the regular peripheral package, to give tough competition to Snapdragon 8 Gen1.

The machine is also sealed with MIUI 13 based on Android 12, which is expected to be factory pre-installed. So it seems that the machine may focus on gaming performance after a new Xiaomi machine with model number 21121210C passed the network entry permit, rumored to correspond to the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition.
Sources say the machine features a centered perforated screen covered with Corning Gorilla Victus protective glass while retaining the gaming shoulder keys on the side.
