Xiaomi has already confirmed that it is planning to launch the Redmi K40 series in February. The latest leak by popular tipster Digital Chat Station indicates that a new mid-range smartphone could be in development with the yet-unannounced Qualcomm Snapdragon 7350 processor. The K40 series is expected to consist of the Redmi K40 and Redmi K40 Pro where the latter is likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 888.
This leaves the standard Redmi K40 as the likely candidate to get the new Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.
