The post Xiaomi Mi CC10 to feature Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chip: Tipster appeared first on Gizmochina.

Recently, a Xiaomi model bearing the model number M2006J10C was certified by China’s 3C with a 33W charger. The model is expected to likely launch as Redmi K40 in Chana. The M2006J10C has now received radio certification in China from the Chinese State Radio Regulation Committee (SRRC).

The Chinese wireless regulator certified the phone for usage on 5G networks. Not surprising, perhaps as the K30 phones are already 5G-enabled thanks to their Snapdragon 865 and 765G chipsets.

The smartphone could launch as the Mi CC10, which as the name indicates, will be the successor to the Mi CC9 launched last year. However, there’s nothing known about this and we’ll have to wait for more information to surface online.

While nothing much is known about the Redmi K40, the Mi CC10 has been rumoured earlier and is said to have been codenamed CAS. It reportedly features a 108-megapixel primary sensor which will be Samsung HM2 — an improved version of the Samsung HM1 sensor.

The handset is expected to come with support for 120x digital zoom and 12x optical zoom. Under the hood, the phone could come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 775G chipset with 5G support.

Xiaomi-backed Redmi had introduced the flagship Redmi K30 series in December last year and the company keeps adding new devices at regular intervals — K30 Pro, K30 Pro Zoom, K30 5G Racing Edition, and K30i.

Now, it seems that the company is finally done launching the K30 series smartphones and is now gearing up to launch its successor. In line with this, an alleged Redmi K40 has surfaced online through 3C certification.

The smartphone in question carries model number M2006J10C and is listed to support 33W fast charging technology. It will also come with an MDY-11-EX charger, which is the same charger that ships with the Redmi K30 Pro. While the listing doesn’t mention the phone’s name, it is speculated to be the Redmi K40.

Rumors also indicate that the smartphone could launch as the Mi CC10, which as the name indicates, will be the successor to the Mi CC9 launched last year. However, there’s nothing known about this and we’ll have to wait for more information to surface online.

The Mi CC9 series is almost due for a successor. Back in March, a list of upcoming Xiaomi phones leaked and it revealed the manufacturer plans to release two successors called the Mi CC10 and the Mi CC10 Pro. Now, a listing for the screen protector for the former has appeared online.

The glass screen protector shows that the Mi CC10 will have a hole at the top left corner of its display. The hole in the glass is quite big but the one on the device should be much smaller.

The listing also says the screen protector is curved which means the phone should have a curved display.

A render of the phone attached to the listing shows the Mi CC10 with four rear cameras arranged in a circular housing. There is an LED flash below the setup but there isn’t a fingerprint scanner. The sensor is also not on the side, so it is safe to say the Mi CC10 will have an in-display fingerprint scanner and thus, an AMOLED display just like its predecessor.

While it is not unusual for sellers to list accessories of unreleased devices for sale, we advise you to take this with a grain of salt until more info about the device surfaces.

A few days ago, a leak revealed some of the phone’s key specs such as the yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 775G processor, a 108MP primary rear camera, and 12x optical zoom.

The Mi CC9 was announced in July 2019. If Xiaomi is sticking to the same date this year, we still have a few more weeks of waiting before the phone arrives. We expect more details will surface in the coming weeks.

Yesterday, Xiaomi announced the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite smartphone for the European markets. It is unclear which other markets outside of China will be receiving the handset. The Chinese manufacturer recently unleashed the Xiaomi Mi 10 Youth Edition 5G phone with 50x periscope zoom lens in China. As far MI Note 10 Lite is concerned, China won’t be receiving it.

In the below shown screengrab, Zang Zhiyuan who is the General Manager of Xiaomi’s Marketing Department in China can be seen talking to Mi fans. He confirmed that the company will not be launching the Mi Note 10 Lite in the home market.

In March, a list of Xiaomi phones that are lined up for Q3 launch had surfaced online. It revealed that the company is planning to Mi CC10 and Mi CC10 Pro. When Zhiyuan was asked whether the Mi Note 10 Lite will be arriving in China as Mi CC10, he refuted the claim.

This is in line with Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun’s statement from November last year. He had said that all Xiaomi phones for China above 2,000 Yuan (~$283) pricing will come with support for 5G connectivity. The MI Note 10 Lite that debuted in Europe yesterday is a 4G phone that is priced at 349 euros (~$382).

The post Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite will not be rebranded as Mi CC10 in China, confirms Xiaomi executive appeared first on Gizmochina.

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.

1 of 2

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 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

Which of these smartphones do you look forward to? Also, do you think Xiaomi is releasing too many phones? Let us know what you think in the comment box below.
