As we already know, the Xiaomi Mi 11 launch conference is scheduled for December 28th, this means that most of the Chinese media have already received the invitation for the presentation. Being Xiaomi, the invitation could not fail to be something exceptional, as some of you will remember, for the launch of the Redmi Note 9 China series, the brand had sent to the press of the real swords. Well, this time Xiaomi has limited itself to something much more compact, but not cheap.
Xiaomi Mi 11: The Snapdragon 888 makes its debut, but it is only an invitation
As we can see in the images, the Mi 11 series presentation invitation includes what looks like a credit card. In reality, however, it is a card with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chip inside.
And no, we're not talking about a scale replica of Qualcomm's CPU, but a real chip that the brand could have used on board its flagships.
So, technically Xiaomi is already the first brand to have debuted the new SoC, even if it is clearly not what is usually meant. Also, there should only be 100 of these invitations that may one day become a high-value heirloom.
In any case, this gimmick from Xiaomi serves as a reminder once again that the Chinese smartphone manufacturer and the American chip manufacturer have a very close partnership that will bring the world's first device with Snapdragon 888 to the market several weeks ahead of competitors .
In particular, according to some Chinese sources, Xiaomi has an agreement to have priority on chips for at least two months, so as to be able to produce at least one million smartphones in the first months of launch. So it's probably the right time that we don't see any stock shortage issues, as happened in the past.
