The MWC 2018 is now near and the rumors about the presentation of the new top of the Xiaomi range, the 7 Mi are quite conflicting with each other. In fact, if someone sees the presence of the Chinese OEM at the event in order to exploit that showcase just to present to the world the new device someone else discourages this news by virtue of the fact that the 7 Mi is not ready yet as Xiaomi is still working to perfect the iPhone X-style facial release. That said, Xiaomi Mi 7 is definitely a reality and what has emerged so far suggests that the device will boast a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC as confirmed by the CEO Lei Jun. Everything else is just assumptions, as the possibility to see two variants of which a standard and a Mi 7 Plus which should adopt a OLED panel from 6,01 inches provided by Samsung. Other information has suggested that the 7 Mi will be the company's first smartphone with wireless charging function, but also that they will be two cameras to embellish the back of the device with probable features optimized for artificial intelligence.
Apart from this today more or less official confirmations come from the well-known user @FunkyHuawei who seems to have put his hand on the firmware files of the new Chinese flagship and that through the XDA website has made them known
Confirmations arrive from the analysis of these files on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, operating system Android 8.0 Oreo and MIUI 9 interface, therefore guaranteed compatibility with Project Treble. And so far nothing new but the fairly significant confirmations come about the presence of an OLED display with Always On feature. In fact, within the firmware files were found references to AOD (Always On Display) which will show time, date, battery level and up to 3 notification badges.
The confirmations on the analysis of the file also come in relation to the existence of the double chamber, as traces of these have been discovered in the binaries of the partition of the supplier that will allow a Bokeh effect in real time. Other information also reveals that support will be present double SIM but no memory expansion via micro SD card, we will also find the IR transmitter, electronic image stabilizer, technology DIRAC audio, support NFC and aptx and aptx HD Bluetooth audio codec from Qualcomm. Finally the battery, until now uncertain as a capacity, will be from 3170 mAh slightly lower than the 3350 mAh version of the 6 Mi.
XDA states that the leaked firmware files are genuine and genuine to 100% and that therefore belonging to the new Xiaomi Mi 7, also because the only devices at the time that seem to be equipped with the CPU Snapdragon 845 are precisely the Mi 7 and the Mi Mix 2S of which, however, the firmware has already been analyzed, as we told you , promising. Of course the firmware file is really huge to analyze therefore stay tuned in case further news or confirmations emerge.
