FEATURED Here’s a complete roundup of what to expect from the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 8. Xiaomi is set to launch Mi 8, the company’s upcoming premium flagship, on 31st of May. We previously expected it to be named  Mi 7 , as its predecessor is the Mi 6, but Xiaomi skipped to 8 because it’s celebrating its 8th Anniversary in the smartphone business. So what can we expect? We already know that it’s coming with the Snapdragon 845 and at least 6 GB RAM. In addition, the Mi 8 will also run the company’s latest MIUI 10 that has not been seen in any other Xiaomi devices so far. It’s also said to come with some sort of 3D facial recognition, that uses front-mounted sensors.
