XDA Developers claimed to have discovered through code investigation that Xiaomi is chipping away at another photograph altering feature for its phones that will enable users to supplant the “sky” with various sky presets. This new “sky replacement” effect will be included as part of the photo editing functionality within the MIUI Gallery application.

The code revealed the sky replacement effect will first feature on upcoming models codenamed “raphael”, “davinci” and “pyxis”. We can’t say for sure which models go by these codenames. From previous leaks, “raphael” and “davinci” are upcoming Snapdragon 855-powered Xiaomi models with pop-up camera setup and an optical, in-display fingerprint scanner. We expect one of them to be the Mi Mix 4. The model codenamed “pyxis” is said to be the MIUI version of an upcoming Android One gadget from Xiaomi (Mi A3) which is suspected to be the successor to the Mi 6X. The gadget will likewise, at any rate, have a 32MP front camera with pixel binning innovation.
