A new leak from China suggests that Xiaomi’s upcoming REDMI K100 series may push smartphone battery capacity to a new level. According to information shared by blogger Digital Chat Station, a “sub-brand flagship” from an unnamed manufacturer is currently testing a 10000mAh± battery. IT Home notes that users in the comment section believe this device could belong to the Xiaomi REDMI K100 series, although the final model name has not been officially confirmed yet. Since this is a REDMI K-series device, it is expected to launch first in China, while standard REDMI K models are usually introduced globally under the POCO brand.
What makes this leak important
The biggest highlight is clearly the battery. Previous reports about the suspected REDMI K100 series mentioned a battery capacity of more than 8000mAh, but the newly tested 10000mAh± version represents a much more aggressive step. If Xiaomi keeps this capacity for the final product, the REDMI K100 series could become one of the most endurance-focused performance phones in the flagship-killer segment.
This also fits Xiaomi’s recent strategy of using high-density silicon-carbon battery technology to increase capacity without making phones excessively thick or heavy. However, because this is still an engineering-stage leak, the final retail capacity may change before launch.
Expected REDMI K100 series specifications
According to the earlier exposure specs leaks, the suspected REDMI K100 series model may feature: The combination of a 185Hz display, high-end Snapdragon platform, wireless charging, waterproof protection, and a 200MP camera suggests Xiaomi may be preparing a much more premium REDMI K-series device than before.

Honor has set a date for one of the most striking mobiles of the year. The new Honor X80 Pro Max will be officially presented in China on June 22 and aims to break several records in the mid-range segment thanks to a feature that stands out above all: a gigantic 11,000 mAh battery. The company has officially confirmed this capacity, a figure that practically doubles that of many current smartphones. In addition, the device will feature 90 W wired fast charging and 27 W reverse charging, allowing it to be used as an external battery to power other devices. Along with the launch date, Honor has also shown the design of the terminal and its official colors. It will be available in Lightning Red, Moon White, Vitality Orange, and Xuanjia Black, betting on a striking aesthetic and a huge circular module for the rear cameras. The latest leaks point to a 6.8-inch screen capable of reaching a maximum brightness of up to 10,000 nits, an extraordinarily high figure. The presence of the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 processor is also expected, accompanied by a 50 MP main camera. Rumored features also include advanced water and dust resistance certification, as well as biometric systems typical of more premium models. The arrival of the Honor X80 Pro Max confirms an increasingly evident trend in the mobile industry: Chinese manufacturers are betting on unprecedented battery capacities to offer several days of autonomy without sacrificing charging speed. If the leaked specifications are met, this model could become one of the autonomy benchmarks of 2026.
