Although it has only been launched for less than a year, Xiaomi has officially discontinued the Redmi K20 Pro to make way for the upcoming Redmi K30 Pro.

In early February, Xiaomi announced that it would stop selling the Redmi K20 Pro in China soon.

In addition to officially announcing the discontinuation of the Redmi K20 Pro, Xiaomi also posted an image on its Weibo page to "commemorate" the K20 Pro with the awards it received, such as ‘Best Android smartphone of 2019’ (Android Authority), ‘Editors Choice award of CNET’ or the most affordable flagship award of Phone Arena. At the bottom of the "memorial" image, Xiaomi did not forget to "tease" the upcoming Redmi K30 Pro.

With the Redmi K20 duo, Xiaomi said it has sold up to 5 million units worldwide, a figure worth proud of with a fledgling Redmi brand that has just been separated from Xiaomi.

Inheriting the success of the Redmi K20 Pro, the Redmi K30 Pro will also be launched soon, expected to be in March, with a series of worthwhile upgrades. Specifically, some leaked images have previously revealed that Redmi K30 Pro will own the design language of the K30 standard version, but it will keep the pop-up camera design and the number of cameras might be increased to two.

The configuration of the device will also be said to be very powerful with Snapdragon 865 chipset, 8GB / 12GB of RAM. Meanwhile, the battery of the device will be upgraded to 4,700mAh with 33W fast charging technology.

Of course, as the successor to the Redmi K20 Pro, the price of the K30 Pro will also be expected to be quite comfortable, ranging from CNY 3,000 (around Rs. 30,600) to CNY 3,500 (35,700).
