Xiaomi Mi3S with 2.5GHz Quad-Core CPU, 3GB of RAM Launching on May 15

Chinese company Xiaomi is expected to introduce a new high-end Android smartphone next week in Beijing, China. The company has recently confirmed that it will announce new products on May 15, so there’s a chance that Xiaomi will launch more than one device.

Dubbed Mi3S, the next Xiaomi flagship smartphone leaked several hours before the Chinese company confirmed the press event in Beijing, which is why we suspect that this is one of the devices to be announced next week. Xiaomi did not unveil any details on the Mi3S, but rumors coming from sources close to the matter claim that the smartphone will be equipped with Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.5GHz. In addition, the smartphone will pack no less than 3GB of RAM and 16G of internal memory. There’s no mention of microSD card slot for storage expansion, but we will know for sure when the smartphone goes official.

On the back, Xiaomi Mi3S is said to boast an impressive 13-megapixel photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, while in the front, the smartphone is expected to be equipped with either a 5- or an 8-megapixel secondary camera. Last but not least, the Mi3S will ship with Android 4.4.2 KitKat operating system out of the box with MIUI on top, and will probably be available for purchase for as low as $320 (€230) outright.
