The leak also claims that the Mi 11 will be the first smartphone in the world to be powered by Snapdragon 888. This isn’t surprising since we all know Xiaomi and Qualcomm had a long-term association with each other. Ice universe has also shared a picture of the Mi 11 screen protection film and claimed that Mi 11 feature a four-curved screen design.

Last month, Xiaomi smartphone with model number M2012K11C made an appearance on Geekbench. The Geekbench listing confirmed Adreno 660 GPU, and 6GB RAM. To those unaware, Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 comes with Adreno 660 GPU. This confirms that M2012K11C is indeed a Mi 11 series device. Xiaomi M2012K11C will run Android 11 out of the box as revealed in the Geekbench listing. The letter ‘C’ in the model number confirms that it’s the variant for the Chinese market.

The upcoming Mi 11 is said to retain an AMOLED display from its predecessor, Mi 10. Xiaomi might bump up the refresh rate to 120Hz this time, or might keep it exclusive to the Pro variant. The Mi 11 is said to be equipped with a 4,780mAh battery and 50W fast charging and 30W wireless charging. We might see a 120W fast charging along with 80W wireless charging on the Pro variant this time. What are your expectations from the upcoming Mi 11 series devices?
