The Xiaomi Mi7 has leaked again,this time in real life images. The leaks confirm the presence of the notched display and dual camera setups. The images throw light upon all the design aspects of the upcoming Xiaomi flagship.
The most noticeable feature of the Mi7 is its resemblance to the iPhone X, not just from the front, but also from the back. The notch up front seems exactly the same as the iPhone X and so does the vertically aligned dual camera setup. What differentiates the Mi7 is the presence of a fingerprint scanner on the back and a thicker chin on the bottom of the screen. In one of the images, it is placed beside a similar smartphone which looks same as the Mi Mix 2S but does not have the same branding as the Mix 2S on the back. Is it a smaller version of the Mi7? In earlier reports which detailed the cases of the Mi7, there was no cut-out for the fingerprint scanner, leading us to believe there won’t be one. Rumors also hint that there would be an under-the-display fingerprint scanner. Such conflicting reports suggest taking this report with a pinch of salt.
