We’ve been hearing a lot about Xiaomi’s upcoming Mi3S device, but now leaks are giving us our first possible look at the highly anticipated device.
Falling in line with previous rumors, these alleged shots of the Mi3S seem to include a more metal design. An image containing the device’s specs that was revealed previously was posted with the images, but the zoomed out images of the device itself, if they are legitimate, offer our first look at the device as a whole. It is clear from the photos that the two devices are not exactly the same (one is painted white, the other black) but they do bear some resemblance. However. a bit of glare prevents us from confirming that definitively.

It also features rounded edges, making it look not unlike the recent iPhone leaks. Interestingly enough, the Weibo account responsible for the leak has been taken down, however a new account with a similar name has taken its place and continues to post the photos.
Again, these photos remain unconfirmed, but they do match up with previous rumors quite well. Xiaomi should launch the Mi3S at some point this year, although exactly when and for how much remains to be seen.
The Mi3S is expected to boast a 2.5 Ghz Snapdragon 801 CPU, 3GB of RAM, a 5 inch 1080p screen, a 13 MP rear camera and an 8 MP front facing camera.
We will keep you up to date on the Mi3s as more information becomes available.
It won’t.
Previous leaks of the packaging seemed to indicate a 64GB model. I put that in my article but I think I accidentally edited it out while removing something else. That is also unconfirmed, however.
You would prefer we waited until an official announcement? I seem to remember some controversy when Andi decided to do that. A legitimate looking leak reported on by a major Chinese tech site? That is news. It is not confirmed news, but I clearly stated that it was a rumor. Rumors are at least 30% of tech news, even on the huge sites, I don’t know where you have been during this whole internet revolution thing, but that is kind of how the tech scene works.
looks like iphone or jiayu phones d…if the pictures are true, then it wont stand out from the crowd
Does anyone know or can guess when will Xiaomi officially reveal / launch the Mi3s ?
Sony and HTC have made me hate xiaomi designs,even this one
