Xiaomi is expected to launch a new variant in its flagship Mi 10 series. The new handset will be placed above the Mi 10 Pro and is dubbed as the Mi 10 Pro Plus. Although, despite being the higher end variant, the Mi 10 Pro Plus will still feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 and not the 865+ variant.
The report arrives from a known Weibo leakster Digital Chat Station (@数码闲聊站), who shared the news on the popular Chinese microblogging website. We had also previously reported on Xiaomi launching a new Mi 10 variant back in June, which was said to launch in August 2020. However, the Chinese tech giant has yet to publicly announce or even tease the rumored upcoming device.

Furthermore, the blogger also stated that he expects the benchmarking scores of the higher clocked variant to be around 640,000 points, which is only 10,000 points over the base version. This would not bring any noticeable difference in performance, especially during day to day use. Although, it is notable that the new processor is the first mobile chip to cross the 3GHz clock speed mark.
Additionally, it has also been said that the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro Plus will feature 100W fast charging as well. But unfortunately, we have no way of confirming any of the news as of right now. We will have to wait for an official company announcement. So take the report with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more updates.
