Like previous times, Xiaomi has made arrangements to live stream the entire 2017 Mi Product Launch event online for loyal Mi India fans, who could not make it to the programme [live stream link given below].
Main Highlight of 2017 Xiaomi Mi Product Launch on Nov 2:
Xiaomi has confirmed that the company will be unveiling first-ever Selfie camera oriented phone that too in all new series, but we are unsure whether it will be marketed under the Redmi or the Mi sub-brands. Also, ruling out the fact that it won't be launching the Redmi Note successor.
What's more intriguing is that there are no rumoured specs on the Internet to share on Xiaomi's mystery selfie phone. Only the Redmi Note 5 series is doing the rounds, but its USP is a FullView camera.
The only thing we are sure is that Xiaomi will be announcing the availability details of the much awaited MIUI 9 global ROM and if the teaser images are to be considered, the latest flagship Mi Mix 2 will be the first device to get the new OS update.
What's coming in MIUI 9 Global ROM?
The Android 7.0 Nougat update brings Google's latest security update, multi-window options, night mode, bundled notification, improved security update, and several other value-added features to enhance user experience.
