Despite the fact that we are nearing the finish of this current year, it would appear that Xiaomi is yet to announced another smartphone. Xiaomi has shared a poster on Weibo which shows the launch date of the upcoming smartphone, and 2:00 PM time for the event. The large-sized Chinese text on the poster translates to “wonderful upgrade”.
Could be a Redmi Note 6 Pro
The company had launched the Redmi Note 5 in China and later they unveiled the same device as Redmi Note 5 Pro in India. The Note 5 Pro is still considered as a mid-range beast. Recently, the Xiaomi had announced the Redmi Note 6 Pro in Thailand and it is expected to debut in China as the Redmi Note 6.
