Help me ID this “khaki or caqui” fruit

[WilliamTheYoungGrower]

A good guy who sells me plants recently sold me a tree saying it was named caqui or khaki and said it beared an orange fruit. Not sure what it is just know it is a tropical fruit tree. Appreciate any help!!

Hi. The leaf size and pattern and your fruit description reminds of Sapoteae species and like Manilkara kauki.  Other khaki /kaki fruits are Diosporys / Persimon /ebony family and their  leaves are more ovate or globular. Interesting to see when it blossoms and fruits. Thanks.

It is also worth mentioning that the guy who sold the plant to me said the fruit had a red/orange color to it.

Manilkara kauki - red orange globular fruit too

The leaves of William's are more elongated.

I also have seen velvet apple or mabolo leaves which look similar to the ones on my tree but im not totally sure. If someone could confirm this it would be amazing

Just snip a piece of a leaf and see whether it oozes white substance. If it doesn't then it is definitely not Manilkara kauki.
