A few weeks ago, when the Snapdragon 888 was announced, Qualcomm announced that one of its manufacturer partners was Xiaomi. Xiaomi himself said that the Mi 11 would be one of the first devices to work with the Snapdragon 888, so there was a leak showing that by the end of the year you could see the Xiaomi Mi 11 with the new chipset.

Now in a post by China’s social media platform Weibo, co-founder Lei Jun confirmed that Xiaomi Mi 11 can be expected to be released on December 28th at 7:30 pm.

Leaks were very low and negligible, but according to the information. There are two variations of the device, standard and professional, both of which support 55 watts of wired charging. In addition, the Mi 11 may have a 120Hz QHD + display. However, December 28th is less than a week, so you don’t have to wait long for a confirmation.
