In other Xiaomi news, there seems to be some unconfirmed report regarding the Xiaomi Mi MIX 4 and Xiaomi Mi 10. None of these smartphones has been officially confirmed by the company but netizens are already suggesting the features they want to see on these devices. A Xiaomi fan commented on Zhang Guoquan’s (director of Xiaomi’s system software department) Weibo post “Can Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi MIX 4 display do something faster?”. This comment got huge positive reactions from netizens and  Zhang Guoquan himself had to reply “Received”. Currently, details about MIX 4 and Mi 10 are unknown.

For now, the high refresh rate feature is for flagship models thus this phone could be the Mix 4 or Mi 10.
