KUALA LUMPUR, May 23 — After announcing the Mi MIX 2S flagship two months ago, Xiaomi is about to announce the successor of the Mi 6.
For their next flagship, it won’t be called the Mi 7 and the launch is taking place next Thursday.
Based on a tweet by Xiaomi’s global Director for Product Management, their next flagship is definitely the Mi 8 and it will be unveiled in Shenzhen on 31 May.
If you’re wondering why they skip number 7, it’s because Xiaomi is celebrating their 8th anniversary this year.
Nothing much has been revealed for the Mi 8 but we can safely assume that it will come with a top of the line Snapdragon 845 processor that comes with up to 8GB of RAM.
Word has it that it might come with an embedded on-screen fingerprint sensor.
