That said, a new word on the street finally sheds some light on the target audience of the upcoming Mi CC series phone.

According to DSP-Charles (blogger) on Weibo, the new Mi CC series handset will be a designer smartphone with an emphasis on camera performance. In other words, it will be similar to its predecessor.
