Xiaomi and its related brands, Redmi and POCO are having a pretty interesting year. If you are on the search for a new phone, all three brands have multiple options to choose from. But this is just the first quarter of the year, so several more devices are expected to launch later.

A leak has surfaced on the web that reveals several new devices from Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO that are reported to be scheduled for release in the third quarter. Some of these devices have familiar names while others are not. According to the source, the list was decoded from an encrypted letter sent to a Xiaomi employee.

There is no evidence that the list is real and even if it is, it is possible for devices to get canceled and launch dates to change. Nevertheless, we advise you to take it with a pinch of salt.

  • Redmi 9 and Redmi 9A – these are successors to last year’s Redmi 8 and Redmi 8A phones which are Redmi’s entry-level smartphones.

Redmi Note 9 Pro Max featured

Redmi Note 9 Pro Max will launch as the Redmi Note 9S+

  • Redmi Note 9S+ – according to the list, the Redmi Note 9S+ will be a rebranded Redmi Note 9 Pro Max. However, Q3 seems like a pretty long time for a rebranded phone to launch in other markets outside of India.
Redmi K30 Pro
The Redmi K30 Pro will launch as the POCO X2 Pro and Mi 10T
  • POCO X2 Pro – another interesting device that has appeared on the list is the POCO X2 Pro. The POCO X2 is already sold in India, which itself is a rebranded Redmi K30 4G.
    The POCO X2 Pro is said to be the same device as the newly announced Redmi K30 Pro. We had speculated the Redmi flagship will launch as the successor to the POCO F1 but looking at it now, it does make sense since the Redmi K30 is the POCO X2, it is only right that the Redmi K30 Pro launches as the POCO X2 Pro.
  • Mi 10T – this too is another rebranded Redmi K30 Pro but heading to Europe. If we were to go by last year’s Redmi K20 launching as the Mi 9T in Europe, the Mi 10T should actually be the same device as the Redmi K30 4G.
Xiaomi Redmi K30 Pro Zoom

  • Mi 10T Pro – Xiaomi will follow up the Mi 9T Pro (Redmi K20 Pro) with a successor this year and it will also be a rebranded phone, but this time, of the newly launched Redmi K30 Pro Zoom Edition.

 

  • Redmi X10 4G/POCO F2/Mi 10S – even with Redmi and Xiaomi betting big on 5G this year, they are not abandoning 4G. Redmi will launch a phone called the Redmi X10, which should be the first of a new series. This device will then be sold as the POCO F2 and the Mi 10S. Curious as to the specs of this device? Don’t be as the Mi 10S was in the news earlier this month.
    The Mi 10S, according to info from a Chinese leaker, is an upcoming phone from Xiaomi with a pretty large display. The source revealed the phone will launch in the second half of the year which goes in line with the Q3 release date state above. The Mi 10S should be a flagship phone with either the Snapdragon 865 chipset or the rumored Snapdragon 865+.
  • Redmi X10 5G/POCO F2 Pro 5G/Mi 10S+ 5G – There will also be a 5G version of the phone above and it will launch as the POCO F2 Pro 5G and the Mi 10S+ 5G. Other than 5G, it should have other features that make it different from the 4G version.
Xiaomi Mi 6 2020

  • Mi 7 2020 – there was never a Mi 7 as Xiaomi jumped from Mi 6 to Mi 8 but this leak says we will be getting a Mi 7 2020. Is this the rumored Mi 6 2020 but with a new name? Only time will tell.

 

Xiaomi CC9
Mi CC9 will get a successor this year that will be launched as the Mi 10 Lite outside China
  • Mi CC10/Mi 10 Lite – Xiaomi will announce a successor to the Mi CC9 which was the first product borne from its partnership with Meitu. Expect it to pack some interesting camera features. The leak says the phone is also the Mi 10 Lite. The phone was launched yesterday in Europe.

 

  • Mi MIX 4 and Mi MIX 4S – last year, Xiaomi announced the Mi MIX Alpha, a concept phone with a wrap-around screen. It wasn’t mass-produced as it would have cost a fortune. This year, the company will announce a proper successor to the Mi MIX 3. Actually two successors as there will also be a Mi MIX 4S. This should be Xiaomi’s best flagships of 2020 and we earnestly look forward to them.
Meizu Zero with 18W wireless charging
Will the Mi Zero have the same design approach as the Meizu Zero.
  • Mi Zero – the leaked product lineup also mentions a new phone called the Mi Zero. Is this another concept phone with no “holes” just like the Meizu Zero or will it be the first of a new line of smartphones? Your guess is as good as ours.
