While not many details have been, word from the rumour mills suggested that the device will have a gigantic 6.4-inch capacitive touch screen HD display. However, nothing has been confirmed by the company yet.
Moreover, some sources, familiar with Xiaomi’s product line-up, also claimed that the new handset will feature a full metal body; it will also employ a powerful Snapdragon 820 SoC. Other than that, the powerful processor is speculated to be supported by a 3/4GB RAM, and an Adreno 530 GPU.

Apart from the aforementioned leaks, the sources also revealed that there is a possibility that the device might be released in May. It is unclear if the device when the device will hit stores globally, but it will surely be available in China.
