Xiaomi announced earlier this week that the flagship Mi 6 series will be launched on April 19. Now, a new report has emerged that says the company may also unveil a mid-tier phablet.
Chinese blog My Drivers has cited reliable sources to claim that Xiaomi will pull the wraps off the long rumoured Mi Max 2 next week.
It is expected to come in two variants based on the CPU configuration. While one will have Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, the other will come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset.
The other features such as display, RAM, battery capacity and camera remain the same in both the variants.
