Xiaomi is all set to unveil its new flagship smartphone, the Mi Mix 2S at an event in Shanghai tomorrow. The event will be live streamed on Facebook at 11:30AM IST and you can watch it here. The upcoming device is expected to continue the design language of the Mi Mix series with a bezel less design. Prior to the launch, Xiaomi has posted a series of teasers for the device that has given us a glimpse as to what we can expect from the phone.
Previous teasers have suggested that the phone will come with Qualcomm’s new flagship chipset, the Snapdragon 845. It also claims that the phone managed to get a score of 273741. More recent teasers suggested the inclusion of Face Unlock and AI-based screen recognition. Other reports suggest that the phone might come with Qi Wireless charging and support for ARCore.
Older leaks hint towards the use of a dual-rear camera setup with vertically stacked sensors. However, it’s the location of the front facing camera that is the bone of contention. Initially leaked renders suggested that Xiaomi was going to adopt the ‘notched’ design by placing the front camera in the top-right corner inside a small notch. But more recent teasers suggest that the phone may not feature the notch at all. Instead, the notch may be located in the bottom chin, just like its predecessors.
