The time that separates us from the future Xiaomi Mi 7 seems to come to an end, even if in the last days there has been a lot of talk about the fact that Lei Jun's company can change the name of the new top of the range in honor of the eighth anniversary that sees the company's presence on the smartphone market scene. Therefore Mi 7 could actually be called Mi 8, which day after day is taking shape thanks to the appearance in a new teaser which cancels the previous one, in which the number 8 and la is stamped in fire presentation date apparently confirmed for the 23 May, as well as a message with a clear indication of the eighth anniversary that he cites: 8 years of essence, 8 years of technology.
To this we add a further teaser that seems to refer to a kind of thanksgiving contest for the smartphone units sold so far, and that is giving away 100 Xiaomi Mi 8. It is not clear why this anniversary is so important compared to the 10 °, maybe it is because of the IPO quotation, but Xiaomi could actually surprise us with the presentation of two devices, ie Mi 7 and Mi 8.
Xiaomi will launch both Mi 7 and Mi 8 on 23 May
However even Apple for their tenth anniversary launched simultaneously both the Iphone 8 and iPhone X. There was also talk of the delay in the presentation of Mi 7 / Mi 8 due to the implementation of the 3D face detection technology, partly confirmed by Digitimes, Taiwan's technology distribution giant, who reported that the process of software adaptation to Qualcomm processors was more complex than expected.
Apart from this, however, we can only rejoice if the date was confirmed officially and not only by rumors, also because the Mi 7 / Mi 8 will be a very complete hardware device: CPU Snapdragon 845, wireless charging Qi, Unlock Face 3D and Finger ID below the right display to mention some of the news that await us. In short, to judge by some photos the top of the range is already among us. Are you ready to welcome him?
The fact of the importance of the 8th anniversary instead of the XNUMXth probably lies in the fact that for the Chinese the number XNUMX is considered an extremely lucky number.
There are people who spend large sums to have, for example, as many 8 numbers as possible on the car license plate in order to "attract" as much luck as possible.
There are airlines that have flights to Beijing. That's called 888 for example.
