At the same event, Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, also confirmed the upcoming Mi 7 smartphone will be using the Snapdragon 845. He also said that all the flagship Xiaomi smartphones launched till date came with Snapdragon chipsets. The Mi 6 launched in early 2017 is the first Snapdragon 835 powered smartphone to launch in the Chinese market.
With the Mi 7, we also expect the company to follow the same trend even in 2018. Unlike the Mi6, the company might also launch the upcoming Mi 7 in the India market. Xiaomi is the number one smartphone brand in Q3 2018 in India. In the first half of this year, the company skipped launching the Mi 6 in India and concentrated more on the budget segment. The Mi 6 comes with a metal frame and 3D curved glass back body. It sports a 5.15-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) display and includes an under-glass fingerprint sensor. As said earlier, it packs 10nm Snapdragon 835 octa-core processor coupled with Adreno 540 GPU. On the rear is the 12MP + 12MP dual rear cameras with 4-axis OIS and 2x optical zoom.
The device also offers stereo speakers placed on the top and bottom of the device. On the connectivity front, the Mi 6 includes the basic options along with latest Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, and USB Type-C 3.0 port. However, the company decided to remove the 3.5mm audio jack on this device. Apart from the glass back body, the device is also launched in the ceramic and stainless steel variants. It measures 7.45 mm thickness and weighs 168 grams. The current-gen Snapdragon 835 is used by all the major the Android smartphone manufacturers for their flagship devices. In 2018, we will be seeing the Snapdragon 845 powered flagship Android smartphones.
Xiaomi Mi 7 Rumored Specifications – SD845, 8GB RAM, 16MP Dual Cameras Instead of the Xiaomi Mi 7, the second-largest Chinese smartphone company is rumored to launch the Mi MIX 2s bezel-less smartphone with Snapdragon 845 processor at the MWC 2018. The recent leaks also mentioned it to feature under display fingerprint sensor. If the company comes up with the Mi MIX 2s, the company might unveil the Mi 7 only in the month of March. Now, the new leaks reveal some key details about the company’s first flagship smartphone of 2018.

One variant of the Mi 7 will be offering 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. In the camera department, the device sports 16MP + 16MP dual rear cameras and there is no information about the front-facing camera. The smartphone will be backed by a 4,480mAh battery and should support Quik Charge technology. We expect it to come with the latest MIUI 9 based on Android 7.1.1 Nougat. Via
Xiaomi Mi 7 to Come with Display Notch & In-Display Fingerprint Sensor Just yesterday, Xiaomi launched the Snapdragon 845 powered Mi MIX 2S bezel-less smartphone in China.

It will be powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform coupled with Adreno 630 GPU. While the Mi MIX 2S is currently limited to the Chinese market, we might see the Mi 7 launching in the global markets.
