According to the leak, the K80 Ultra will feature a flat 6.83-inch M9 OLED panel with a resolution of 2772×1280 and a 144Hz refresh rate. It supports 800 nits of typical brightness, 1800 nits in high-brightness mode, and up to 3200 nits at peak. The display will be supplied by TCL CSOT and Tianma, continuing the dual-sourcing approach previously seen in the Redmi K70 Ultra. The touch layer is handled by FocalTech. While panel sourcing from multiple vendors often sparks concerns over display consistency, Xiaomi is expected to apply uniform calibration across units.

TCL CSOT’s presence in Xiaomi’s smartphone lineup is only growing. The Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro series, released earlier, relied heavily on TCL CSOT for their OLED panels. The collaboration appears to be expanding further this year. Both the Xiaomi 16 Pro and Redmi K90 Pro, expected to launch later in 2025, are rumored to feature TCL CSOT’s next-generation Real RGB OLED displays. These panels are designed to deliver more accurate color reproduction and higher light efficiency by moving away from traditional RGBW layouts.

The K80 Ultra will also bring high-end internals, including the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ processor, D2 discrete GPU, LPDDR5X RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage. It will be powered by a 7410mAh battery with 100W fast charging and bypass charging support.

In terms of cameras, the device includes a 50MP Light Hunter 800 main sensor with OIS, paired with an 8MP OV08F ultra-wide, and a 20MP OV20B front camera. Other premium features include a metal mid-frame, Dragon Crystal glass, IP68/IP69 protection, dual stereo speakers, and X-axis linear motor. The phone also integrates Xiaomi’s Surge chip suite, T1, T1S, P3, and G1, for better power management.

The K80 Ultra will be available in four color variants: Spruce Green, Ice Blue, Moon Rock White, and Sandstone Gray. It weighs 219 grams and measures 8.18mm in thickness.

In related news, TCL has launched the NXTPAPER 14 tablet in the US, featuring a paper-like display and a 10,000mAh battery. Meanwhile, the TCL Z100 wireless speaker with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect has been announced in Europe.
