With smartphones getting more and more powerful day by day, smartphone manufacturing companies are now trying to push the limits when it comes to memory configurations. We are already seeing phones with 12GB of RAM and now it’s time for 16GB RAM.

As per the rumors coming from China, Xiaomi could launch a new smartphone in its home market which will come packed with a massive 16GB RAM. However, nothing more about this is known at this time.

Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha

While the rumor doesn’t reveal which smartphone will come with 16GB of RAM, it is speculated that the device in question could be a part of the Mi MIX lineup but the name of the phone remains unknown.

Xiaomi 16GB RAM rumorAs per the reports, the upcoming Mi MIX smartphone will have a design similar to the Mi MIX Alpha and the phone will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor along with 5G connectivity support. The device is said to be in the production stage.

Recently, Xiao Zang, Deputy General Manager of Marketing, confirmed through a post on Weibo that the Mi Mix Alpha will not get Snapdragon 865 variant. This could mean that the upcoming device could be a totally different phone in the MIX series.

However, all of this is just speculation at this point in time and the company has not yet confirmed any of this. So, if the report about the 16GB RAM smartphone from Xiaomi is true, we should get more details about the same in the coming weeks or months.

While Xiaomi could be working on a 16GB RAM smartphone, Nubia has already launched its flagship gaming phone named Nubia Red Magic 5G that packs 16GB of RAM and is available for purchase in various markets.
