January 10, 2026, 2:24 AM EST. Xiaomi is rumored to be working on a phone with a built-in cooling fan, per Digital Chat Station on Weibo. The device would be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 SoC and feature a 1.5K resolution screen with an ultra-high refresh rate. The fan would be embedded in the camera island and the phone is claimed to carry IP68 dust and water resistance. The model is tied to Redmi's K80 Ultra, likely the upcoming Redmi K90 Ultra, based on the chipset pattern used in past K-series Ultras. Rumors describe a 6.8-inch LTPS OLED display at 165Hz, very rounded corners, a metal frame, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, and a battery of at least 8,000 mAh. No official confirmation yet; details circulate from leaks.
