Like last year’s K30 Pro, this year’s marquee K40 model will pack Qualcomm’s latest flagship chipset– the Snapdragon 888. It will be coupled with a flat display which is touted as “the most expensive flat screen” though we’re not completely sure what this entails. Based on previous rumors, all K40 series phone will come with high refresh rate screens but we don’t yet know if it will be an LCD or AMOLED panel.

Typical Xiaomi, release as many phones but poor future software support. No wonder updates come with bugs too many phones to support. Just release 3 good phone per year, a pro non-pro & budget. Never buying Xiaomi phones. Mi 10T already has bugs ...

The article said that it was confirmed that the battery will be larger than 4,000 mAh. I'd imagine it will be around the 5,000 mAh mark.
