05/11/2018

With the official presentation of the Mi MIX 3 we closed what we could define the period of the flagships of Xiaomi for the 2018. As it was easy to imagine, with the end of this "period", here are the first rumors of the next top of the brand's range starting to appear on the web. Xiaomi Mi 9, which should be the first smartphone to mount it Snapdragon 8150.

Xiaomi Mi 9 with Snapdragon 8150: the flagship could be the first device with the new Qualcomm SoC on board

According to a report from China, it seems that the company's future flagship will come in first half of the 2019 and that will be equipped with the latest high-end of Qualcomm. The Snapdragon 8150 (or rather, the former 855) should be launched in December and the source is certain that it Xiaomi Mi 9 will be the first top of the range next year to adopt the new solution of the US chipmaker, with 6 / 8 / 10 GB of RAM.

The news would not end here; the report specifies that the back cover of the device will host one Triple camera - well yes, the trend of Huawei it also affects the Shenzhen company - with a main sensor Sony IMX586 da 48 mega-pixels.

You will not miss a sensor ID integrated into the display, an element that suggests that we will deal with a panel OLED. Finally, finally, wireless charging will be present, so far only seen on board the Mi MIX 2S and Mi MIX 3. Obviously, what has been read so far must be taken with the greatest skepticism; however many details could be realistic.

We conclude with a small note; seen what happened last year (with the launch of the Mi MIX 2S as an "updated" version of the MIX 2) it is not excluded that the first smartphone of the company to arrive with the Snap 8150 is the variant 5G of the Mi MIX 3. For the moment it is only a matter of suppositions and we just have to wait for some details from Xiaomi herself.
