TL; DR
- Xiaomi could launch its new line of Mi Pad tablets and the Mi Mix 4 next week.
- The company will host its 10th anniversary event on August 10th, chaired by Lei Jun.
- Both devices recently went through certification authorities, suggesting upcoming debuts.
There are many indications that Xiaomi will soon be launching a new tablet suite and a new premium smartphone. However, the company has remained silent on a confirmed launch date. Well, it seems these new slates and the phone could arrive before the end of the month.
Xiaomi has announced an event chaired by company founder Lei Jun scheduled for August 10 at 7:30 p.m. CST (7:30 p.m. ET). The event will cover the latest “good news” from Xiaomi and focus on the “10 toughest decisions” made by Jun in the company’s history.
The description of the event does not become much more specific and leaves the fine details open for interpretation. One leaker believes that Xiaomi will do more than just talk at the event.
According to Weibo tipster Bald Panda, the Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 and Mi Pad 5 series will debut at the event. While there is little evidence to support this claim, it is clear that we are working towards an imminent launch.
Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 and Mi Mix 4: what can we expect?
The alleged Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 series was recently caught at multiple certification bodies, suggesting a launch is imminent. The company also teased a long-awaited Mi Mix reprise in February. Details discovered in the MIUI 13 code suggest that a flagship is coming soon with a camera under the display.
The Mi Mix 4 and Mi Pad 5 are arguably the most highly anticipated Xiaomi devices for a while, but they could hit the market in one of the busiest weeks of the year. Samsung will launch its new products on August 11th, while Chinese rival Honor will launch the Magic 3 a day later.
