The new Xiaomi Redmi K90 Max gaming smartphone has been unveiled—a device designed for those who want to game for long sessions without worrying about performance.
This device features a high-capacity battery of up to 8,000 mAh, ensuring hours of uninterrupted gaming. It’s powered by the recently unveiled MediaTek Dimensity 9500 SoC, a chipset that outperforms the Apple A19 Pro and can handle any demanding game. To ensure we don’t have to worry about performance drops as temperatures rise, the device features an active fan, allowing the system to dissipate heat efficiently. We hope it isn’t too noisy.
The system will run Android 16 with the custom HyperOS 3.1 overlay. In terms of design, the IP69 rated body is also worth noting, allowing us to worry less about dust or splashes.
Redmi K90 Max Specifications
Inside this high-end device is the new MediaTek Dimensity 9500, manufactured on a 2nm process. The chip features one C1-Ultra core clocked at 4.21 GHz, two C1-Premium cores clocked at 3.5 GHz, and four C1-Pro cores clocked at 2.7 GHz. The GPU is also a new Arm Mali-G1 Ultra MC12 capable of encoding and decoding video at resolutions up to 8K and supports Ray Tracing and Unreal Engine 5.6.
Inside the smartphone is an 18.1 mm fan, which, according to the brand, can cool the system by -10°C in 100 seconds thanks to an airflow of 0.42 CFM. Xiaomi assures us that this offers a 30% improvement in efficiency compared to competing solutions. It features blades with a special angle and an optimized air intake, ensuring more efficient intake and distribution of the cool air inside.
