Like last year’s K40 Gaming, there’s a pair of physical game triggers on the right-hand side. The phone also comes with Xiaomi’s CyberEngine x-axis haptics motor and dual JBL-tuned speakers. The phone features a metal frame while the back is made from glass.

Xiaomi developed an all-new dual vapor chamber (VC) cooling system to keep the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset and the rest of the components in check. It starts with a copper radiator placed right on top of the chipset. Xiaomi also employed dual graphite sheets, stainless steel and mesh materials.
