Specifications leak on upcoming unnamed Xiaomi smartphone

Xiaomi recently expressed interest in offering more high-end smartphones and fewer budget and mainstream options moving forward. The recently leaked specifications for what could potentially be the Xiaomi Mi Note 2 Pro or Mi 5s back up this sentiment with impressive numbers if proven to be true.

According to the Chinese source, an upcoming Xiaomi smartphone could feature the following specifications:

• 5.5-inch FHD OLED panel, 96 percent AdobeRGB coverage, 500 nit brightness
• Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 SoC
• Up to 6 GB LPDDR4 RAM (1866 MHz)
• 64/128 GB UFS 2.0 eMMC
• 3700 mAh battery

The FHD OLED display will be the highlight of this yet-to-be-named Xiaomi. Interestingly, the panel is expected to be sourced from AUO instead of Samsung.

Other notable features include a 12 MP rear camera with a high-end Sony IMX260 sensor or even the Samsung ISOCELL S5K2L1 as used on the current Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Unlike the Samsung flagships, however, this supposed Xiaomi smartphone will have a smaller aperture of f/2.0 instead of f/1.7. Thus, performance in low-light conditions may be inferior as a result. A 4-axis optical image stabilizer (OIS) and rear fingerprint reader may also be included.
