The mysterious Xiaomi phone
with model number M1807E8S had recently bagged 3C certification in China. It is
speculated that it could be the upcoming Mi Max 3 smartphone. The 3C
certification of the phone did not reveal any information on its specs. Today,
the leaked specs sheet of the alleged Mi Max 3 phone has surfaced on Weibo. It
reveals that it will be a major upgrade over predecessor Mi Max 2 phone.
The below image reveals that the Mi Max 3 will be
embracing a full screen design as it will be supporting Full HD+ resolution on
its LCD display of 6.99 inches. This suggests that the handset may carry
support for 18:9 aspect ratio. The Snapdragon 710 that powers the likes of
Xiaomi Mi 8 SE and Vivo NEX A will be powering the Xiaomi Mi Max 3. It will be
available in two RAM variants of 4 GB and 6 GB.
The Mi Max 3 will be the first phone in its series
to arrive with a dual camera setup. It is expected to feature 20-megapixel Sony
IMX363 as the primary sensor. It is the very same camera sensor that is found
Xiaomi’s flagship phones like Xiaomi Mi 8 and Mi MIX 2S. There is no information
available on the secondary sensor as well as the selfie snapper of the phone.
The handset is pegged to come loaded with MIUI 10
flavored Android 8.1 Oreo. It is expected to receive power from a 5,500mAh
battery that will carry support for 18W fast charging through Quick Charge 3.0.
This leak has no information on the storage variants
of the Mi Max 3. It is likely that 4 GB and 6 GB RAM variants may respectively
feature 64 GB and 128 GB of native storage. Like the predecessor model, it may
feature a microSD card. Leaked firmware files that belong to the alleged Mi Max
3 that had surfaced around four months ago had revealed that it may come
equipped with dual speakers, wireless charging, rear-mounted fingerprint
scanner and iris scanner.
As of this writing, there is no information on the
launch date and pricing of the Xiaomi Mi Max 3. Even though the above specs
appear suitable for the smartphone, it is advisable to take this report with a
grain of salt.
