Redmi K100 Pro Appears on Geekbench: Everything We Know About the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Flagship

The Redmi K100 Pro — model number M511CD — has been spotted on Geekbench, offering a first look at its raw performance ahead of a rumored launch at ChinaJoy 2026. The listing confirms a flagship Qualcomm chipset, generous RAM, and Android 16 out of the box. Combined with a steady stream of leaks from prolific tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS), a detailed picture of the device is emerging.

Geekbench Performance: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and Impressive Scores

The Geekbench listing, published on July 29, 2026, reveals the Redmi K100 Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (SM8850) processor . Built on a 3nm process, this octa-core chip includes 2 performance cores with a peak clock speed of 4.61 GHz and 6 efficiency cores at 3.63 GHz .

The device recorded a single-core score of 3,209 and a multi-core score of 10,284 in the benchmark . The Geekbench listing also indicates 16GB of RAM (detected as 14.73GB) and the device is running Android 16 . It is not yet confirmed whether it will ship with Xiaomi's HyperOS 3 or the newer HyperOS 4 .

Display: Large, Smooth, and OLED

According to multiple leaks, the K100 Pro will feature a 6.9-inch flat OLED display with 1.5K resolution and an adaptive 185Hz refresh rate . Some earlier leaks have also suggested a 6.59-inch variant could be in the works, but the 6.9-inch panel appears to be the leading candidate for the Pro model . The phone is also expected to include a dedicated graphics/display co-processor for improved gaming performance, similar to the D2 chip in the K90 Ultra .

Camera System: Triple Cameras Headlined by 200MP

The camera system is expected to be a major selling point. Leaks point to a triple camera setup on the back :

• 200MP main camera
• 50MP periscope telephoto lens with macro capabilities
• 50MP ultrawide sensor
  This configuration would represent a significant upgrade over previous Redmi K-series phones, especially regarding the periscope zoom hardware.

Battery and Charging: Wireless Charging Debuts on the K-Series

One of the most notable leaks is the inclusion of a massive ~9,000mAh silicon-carbon battery in the K100 Pro, which would be the largest ever in a Redmi K-series phone . This is accompanied by some serious charging capabilities :

• 100W wired charging (with PD3.0/PPS support)
• 50W wireless charging — a first for a K-series Pro model
• 22.5W reverse wireless charging

For comparison, the standard Redmi K100 is reported to have an 8,000mAh battery, also with 100W wired and wireless charging .

Durability: IP68/IP69 Rating

The K100 Pro is expected to carry an IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance rating, making it not only submersible up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes (IP68) but also resistant to high-pressure and high-temperature water jets (IP69) .

Expected Models and Launch Timeline

The Redmi K100 series is expected to consist of three models: the base Redmi K100, the K100 Pro, and the top-of-the-line K100 Pro Max . All three are speculated to be powered by some variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

Redmi has reportedly teased the series with the slogan "Demon King" on social media . The launch event is expected to take place during ChinaJoy 2026 in Shanghai, which runs from July 31 to August 3, 2026 .

Important Note: While the Geekbench scores and chipset details come directly from a confirmed listing, many other specifications (display size, camera specs, battery capacity, and durability ratings) are based on leaks, primarily from tipster Digital Chat Station. Final details may change at the official launch.
