Xiaomi Mi 8 Launching on 31 May - Confirmed

The Mi 8 is officially debuting as the new Mi series flagship next week. Xiaomi has scheduled the Mi 8 launch event for May 31. However, it's launching date in India is expected on September, 12 2018. With the confirmation on the upcoming launch, it is also presumed that the Chinese company has no plans to bring the Mi 7 as the successor to its last year's Mi 6 - instead, it appears to be skipping an iteration by launching the Mi 8 to celebrate its eighth anniversary. A box package and a screen protector tipping the launch of the smartphone had already surfaced on the Web. The Beijing-headquartered company is also rumoured to be building its proprietary 3D facial sensing technology to take on Apple's Face ID.
As confirmed by a teaser image posted on Weibo, the Xiaomi Mi 8 launch is taking place in Shenzhen, China. Xiaomi Global spokesperson Donovan Sung, in a separate tweet on Tuesday, highlighted that the new launch is aimed to mark the company's eighth anniversary. "To celebrate our 8th year anniversary, we'll be launching Mi 8 at our annual flagship product launch in Shenzhen on May 31," Sung tweeted.

Xiaomi Mi 8 Rumoured Specifications
Considering the past rumours, the Xiaomi Mi 8 is speculated to come with a notch design and have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845SoC along with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of onboard storage. The handset is also expected to run Android Oreo on top of a new MIUI version and might have an under display fingerprint sensor. An image leaked recently suggested that Xiaomi is also set to include a dedicated camera unit on the front to enable advanced facial recognition that will be in line with Apple's Face ID that debuted on the iPhone X last year. Moreover, the Mi 8 is expected to counter the OnePlus 6 with its all-new build and a bunch of custom features.

These tiles can serve as a highly interactive learning tool for young children who can receive immediate reactions to their actions. SNUI is also great for simple puzzle games where gameplay includes shifting and rotating tiles to win. Then there’s also the ability to sort images physically by grouping these tiles together according to your preferences. It is a more crowd-enabled TUI; instea...
