(Slash Leaks) ![Author Photo](https://images.hindustantimes.com/tech/static/revamp/images/png/HTTech-new-circle-logo.png) ### By HT CORRESPONDENT Xiaomi will unveil the Mi 8 at its annual flagship event in Shenzhen, China, on May 31. However, leaks about the smartphone continue to surface online even with just two days to go for the launch. The new flagship smartphone will succeed the Mi 6 released last year. As you can see, the company has skipped one generation by using the '8' moniker. Xiaomi says it chose the number because the upcoming smartphone performed way better than expected. It's safe to say that another reason could be to commemorate the company's eighth anniversary. We have compiled recent leaks and rumours to form a collective roundup of everything we know about the Xiaomi Mi 8. Also read click here. Display and design The retail box and promotional images of the Xiaomi Mi 8 have been leaked online, giving us a glimpse of the smartphone's design. The biggest and most noticeable change in this aspect will be the notch cutout on the Mi 8's display. The smartphone appears to house a smaller bottom bezel as compared to its predecessor, with no sign of a home button. The rear panel may also witness a slight change, with the dual camera setup being vertically aligned. The circular fingerprint sensor, however, sits on the same place as the Mi 6. Xiaomi Mi 8 could also feature a 5.65-inch full HD+ display with an aspect ratio of 19:9. Processor, RAM and storage As for specs, the Mi 8 is expected to house Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 845 processor. The same SoC powers competing flagships like OnePlus 6 and Huawei P20 Pro. In terms of memory, the Xiaomi Mi 8 could come in variants of 6GB and 8GB RAM, with storage options ranging from 64GB to 256GB. Camera Several leaks and rumours suggest a dual-camera setup that could be a combination of 20-megapixel sensors. Although information on camera specifics is hard to come by, reports suggest that it will be better than that of the Mi MIX 2S. Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S features 12-megapixel Sony IMX 363 sensors with f/1.8 and f/2.4 apertures. For selfies, Xiaomi Mi 8 is said to sport a 16-megapixel front camera with f/2.0 aperture. Rumours claim that the Mi 8 will also come with a 3D facial recognition system that will be on a par with the iPhone X's 'Face ID'. A new leaked video also reveals iPhone X-like animojis, including a Xiaomi mascot that can sing the company's theme tone. > #Xiaomi #Mi8 #Animoji pic.twitter.com/OZwL8GI6UV— 📱 🖥️ 👶 🇮🇩 (@bang_gogo_) May 28, 2018 Battery and OS As per rumours, the Xiaomi Mi 8 may have a 4,000mAh battery as well wireless charging support.
