Recall that we brought you the renders of a device
said to be Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 with a design
that looks interestingly like the Samsung Galaxy S8. Turn out the model isn’t
the Mi Max 2 but is likely a Xiaomi model which is said to be a flagship model
with powerful specs.
More details have now emerged that the Xiaomi model
is said to belong to a new Xiaomi X series and is known internally by the
codename “Chiron”. The xiaomi model will utilise a full-screen design with a
6-inch inch LCD display panel from Japanese Display International (JDI). The
display is said to have a resolution of 2160 × 1080 pixels with ultra-thin
bezels at the top and bottom edges.
The Xiaomi full screen phone is touted to come
packing Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 835 chip which will be backed by 8GB of
RAM while there is 256GB of storage onboard. On the camera aspect, the Xiaomi
model is said to feature a similar configuration as the Mi 6 flagship
comprising a 12MP Sony IMX362 sensors
while up front will be a 5MP selfie sensor with model number OV5675.
According to the source, the Xiaomi X series model
with a full screen design is tipped to drop on July 25 along with the Xiaomi
Redmi 6X. On its part, the Redmi 6X will feature a Snapdragon 660 chip, 6GB
RAM, dual cameras (Sony IMX386 + Samsung S5k3m3). The device is also expected
to feature a 5.46-inch JDI Incell screen with 1080pixels resolution.
We are not so sure about this latest leak so as is usually done in such cases, take this with a pinch of salt until Xiaomi goes official with the models.
