New Leaks Give a Picture of Xiaomi Mi Notebook


BENGALURU: Ahead of the Chinese giant Xiaomi's Wednesday event in Beijing, images have been leaked online of a new Mi Notebook. Apart from the alleged Mi Notebook images, presentation slides have also surfaced on the internet hinting at the possible pricing of the device.

Rumours about Xiaomi Mi Notebook have been doing the rounds for quite some time, but new details have emerged about the upcoming laptop which shed light on the product's design, specifications and pricing. According to images psoted by GizmoChina, the Mi Notebook shows full metallic construction with ultra-slim bezels. One of the leaked images confirms that the laptop will feature USB Type-C for charging alongside what appears to be a USB 3.0 port. The side profile image of the Mi Notebook purportedly shows a sleek device. It's worth noting that the leaked images do not show the Mi logo on the device.

According to leaked details about the specifications, the alleged Mi Notebook is expected to come in two variants - standard featuring Intel Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage priced at CNY 3,999 (approximately 40,000), and a Pro version which comes with an Intel Core i7, 16GB of RAM, Nvidia graphics card and 512GB of storage priced at CNY 6,699 (approximately 68,000). The Mi Notebook is said to come with a 15.6-inch display. It is expected that Xiaomi may come out with the alleged Mi Notebook on Wednesday at its event in Beijing.

Of course, as with all rumours and leaks, we advise readers to take the above information about the Xiaomi's first Mi Notebook with a pinch of salt, as the Chinese company is yet to make any official announcements about its new notebook.

For Xiaomi's Wednesday launch event, a series of teasers have come out from the company confirming several details of the new  Redmi smartphone dubbed RedmiPro. It will sport a deca-core MediaTek Helio X25. Previously, Xiaomi revealed that the Redmipro will come with an Oled display. Going by the pricing, these laptops are expected to be high-end as compared against the likes of Macbook Pro, Lenovo Yoga 700 and Asus ROG PC. Seems like the Mi Notebook is in for a strong fight.
