It was recently reported that Xiaomi is now only selling the 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage model of the Xiaomi Mi 6 and higher variants like 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage are no longer available for buying. This suggests that the Chinese manufacturer could be gearing up to announce the Xiaomi Mi 7 flagship phone. Fresh photos of the alleged Mi 7 smartphone have appeared on Weibo to reveal its appearance and some of its features.

The alleged Xiaomi Mi 7 can be seen in white color in the newly leaked photos. The sides of the phone seem to be sporting a stainless-steel frame. The bottom edge of the phone is equipped with an external speaker, a USB-C port and a microphone. The two antenna strips on the bottom edge of the phone are clearly visible.

The images also reveal that like the predecessor model, the Mi 7 does not feature a 3.5mm audio jack. The image showing the right edge of the phone shows the presence of buttons for power and volume. It also gives a glimpse of a vertically aligned dual camera setup. It seems that the LED flash could be placed between the dual lenses.

The Mi 7 Plus is pegged to arrive with features like 6.1-inch display, Snapdragon 845, 4,000mAh battery and under display fingerprint reader.
