The Redmi K100 Pro is beginning to leave a bigger digital footprint ahead of its expected debut. Days after Xiaomi teased the upcoming flagship in China, the phone has now been spotted on Geekbench, giving us a clearer idea of the hardware it could bring.

A Xiaomi device carrying the model number M511CD has appeared on the benchmarking platform. The listing doesn't explicitly mention the Redmi K100 Pro, but earlier certification records have already linked this model number to the Chinese variant of the handset.
The benchmark entry points to Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. It lists the SM8850 processor with two prime cores clocked at 4.61GHz and six performance cores running at 3.63GHz, which lines up with earlier reports about the flagship SoC.
The prototype tested on Geekbench packs close to 15GB of RAM, suggesting Xiaomi could launch it with 16GB RAM. It is also running Android 16, and HyperOS 3 is expected to be layered on top.
On the performance side, the phone managed 3,429 in the single-core test and 10,671 in the multi-core test on Geekbench 6.7.1. While benchmark scores don't always reflect real-world usage, they do indicate that Xiaomi is aiming squarely at the premium flagship segment.
The K100 series is rumoured to include three smartphones. Xiaomi has already confirmed that it will attend ChinaJoy 2026, which kicks off on July 31 in China. The company has teased the launch of a new product during the event, although it hasn't revealed what that device will be.

For now, Xiaomi is keeping the launch date under wraps. That said, previous leaks suggest the Redmi K100 lineup could arrive in September, a month earlier than last year's Redmi K90 series, which debuted in October.
