Camera Specs

The Xiaomi Redmi K90 Pro Max marks a massive shift for the Redmi brand, bridging the gap between flagship killer and true premium flagship. At the heart of this evolution is its Triple 50MP All-Star Camera System, which borrows heavily from Xiaomi’s 17-series flagships to deliver professional-grade mobile photography.

1. 50MP Light Hunter 950 Primary Sensor
   The primary lens uses the Light Hunter 950 sensor, the same flagship hardware found in the standard Xiaomi 17.

3. Pro-Grade Ultrawide & Macro
   The 50MP Ultrawide lens offers a 102° field of view. Unlike budget ultrawides that lose sharpness at the edges, this sensor maintains high resolution across the entire frame. It also doubles as a macro lens, allowing you to get within centimeters of a subject for stunning detail.
