This morning, Xiaomi Group Vice President Lu Weibing revealed the Redmi K40 packaging box on Weibo and announced that the device will be released next month.
Judging from the images, there are two versions of the K40 packaging: one with a slim design similar to the Xiaomi 11 and the other with a traditional design.
Undoubtedly, the ultra-thin packaging box may only include the box, SIM ejector pin, and manual. The charger and data cable should no longer be included, while the standard design version should include all accessories.
Lu Weibing said that this is a difficult choice, so ask users’ opinions. In the comments, many users think that thicker is more appropriate. After all, the more accessories, the better. However, some users believe that the thin packaging box is more premium, and suggested a method similar to the Xiaomi 11, where the charger and data cable are sent separately.
Given the product positioning of the Redmi K40 series, if it does indeed stop including a charger in the future, it is unlikely a charger will be included for free; it will most likely need to be purchased separately.
