Redmi K50i undergoes successful 5G trials with Jio


Today, Redmi India and Reliance Jio announced that they will work together to test live 5G networks for the upcoming Redmi K50i.

During the trial, the phone was put through several extreme situations to test its capabilities and performance. This was done to make sure that end users would have a smooth backend experience. The company says that the latest flagship device from Redmi did very well in real-world tests.

The brand tested 5G outside of a lab and got impressive results, with both upload and download speeds that were very fast. The Redmi K50i lived up to its promise as a performance-driven phone when it was tested for 4K streaming and cloud gaming that required high speed and low latency. It had no lag when playing online games or streaming 8K videos, and it did a great job when tested in a variety of harsh conditions.

Additionally, the test’s positive results will contribute to the commercialization of 5G and the development of a full 5G experience for Indian users as early as next year. The Redmi K50i will be the first Redmi device to be outfitted with 12 5G bands, including n1, n3, n5, n7, n8, n20, n28a, n38, n40, n41, n77, and n78. This is done with the intention of increasing access to 5G services and creating new experiences. Also, the trial tested how well the most recent Redmi India technology worked with Reliance Jio’s 5G network, and the results were very good.

The Redmi K50i is slated to debut in India on July 20, 2022, and is intended to give users faster connectivity, more efficiency, new performance levels, and scalability to 5G in this market.

Commenting on the collaboration, Anuj Sharma, CMO, Xiaomi India, says,

As a pioneer in bringing generation changes, Redmi India is committed to its philosophy of democratizing technology and making it more accessible to consumers in the country. With this trial, we are excited to join hands with Reliance Jio to demonstrate the readiness of Redmi K50i and our capabilities in providing immersive and reliable 5G technology to users. The encouraging outcome from this test highlights the true potential of Redmi K50i and brings a high-quality 5G experience closer to reality. We are proud of our contribution towards this digital revolution, as India nears to the launch of the 5G.
