It is also visible that the smartphone will have a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for added security. This indicates that the phone could be a mid-range offering given that most mid-range phones now have a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and it could come with an LCD display instead of OLED.
The fingerprint sensor is embedded in the power button itself, which is placed on the right side of the phone, along with the volume rocker keys. Apart from this, nothing much is known about this upcoming offering from Xiaomi.
It is being speculated that the smartphone could be a part of the Xiaomi CC series or the upcoming Redmi Note 10. However, these are just speculations and we will have to wait for some more time to get more details about this.
