There is no confirmation on the display design of the phone. So, it remains to be seen whether the phone will be sporting a notch-less display or the one with punch hole for the front-facing camera. It could be an AMOLED display with an in-screen fingerprint reader embedded in it, but the leakster has not confirmed these details. It is speculated that the Redmi Snapdragon 855 smartphone may go official in May or June.

Speaking of notch-less Redmi phone, a recent leak had revealed that a Snapdragon 730 powered Redmi smartphone is waiting in pipeline to get announced in the  near future. This phone is expected to come with features like notch-less display, pop-up selfie camera, 3.5mm audio jack and 48-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 13-megapixel triple camera setup. Yesterday, Xiaomi had launched the Redmi Y3 smartphone with 32-megapixel selfie camera in India. The same phone is also expected to go official in China as Redmi S3.
