Xiaomi is not expected to launch its flagship Mi 7 smartphone at MWC 2018, and will announce the Mi MIX 2s instead. However, new leaks have supposedly revealed specifications for the upcoming flagship. Rumoured to launch in April or May this year, the Mi 7 will sport most features that have become standard for flagships.
The leaked screenshot suggests the flagship phone will feature the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of inbuilt storage, and a dual 16-megapixel camera setup. A variant with 6GB RAM, 64GB storage could also be launched as the base model. Apart from that, we can expect this phone to sport a 5.65-inch full-HD+ (1080x2160 pixels) display with an 18:9 aspect ratio.Mi 7 would be the first phone to be powered by the Snapdragon 845 SoC. Plans, however, may have changed since as the Mi MIX 2s looks to become the first phone to achieve this feat. Reports also suggest the Xiaomi Mi 7 will feature face unlock technology.
The Mi 7 might come with a 4480mAh battery under the hood. This is especially suspicious considering Xiaomi is unlikely to give battery capacity this big a bump with the Mi 6 sporting a 3350mAh battery. Also, previous reports have suggested the presence of a 6-inch full-HD+ display, instead of the mentioned 5.65-inch variant.The screenshot reveals that the phone is running MIUI 9 Developer ROM version 8.1.30, although it could be launched with the latest stable version of MIUI 9.
