The Xiaomi Mi 8 follows last year's Mi 6, skipping the 7 to mark the company's eighth year.
The Xiaomi Mi 8 will run Xiaomi's custom MIUI 10 skin on top of Android. The new, updated skin will feature gesture controls and a driving mode that uses Xiaomi's own Xiao Ai voice assistant. It will also support portrait mode for single-camera phones. Other cool features include being the world's first phone to adopt dual-frequency GPS, for more accurate navigation.
It shares a similar notch design and vertical rear cameras to Apple's device. But the Mi 8's 6.21-inch AMOLED display doesn't quite stretch all the way to the bottom. And it comes with infrared cameras located at the notch for face unlocking.
The rear 12-megapixel dual-cameras will take pretty good pictures. On the front is a 20-megapixel camera using "pixel-binning" technology to combine four pixels into a larger one for better low-light selfies.
