Now they have revealed more features of the phone, including support for Qi wireless charging, making it the first Xiaomi smartphone with the feature.

The render of the smartphone placed on wireless charging pad revealed through the firmware could be the Mi MIX 2S that is expected to have similar design as the MIX 2 on the front and the front camera is present on the bottom right corner of the phone, similar to the Mi MIX  and MIX 2.

Even though earlier renders showed dual rear camera arrangement in the middle, a new image of the phone has surfaced showing the dual rear cameras with the flash in the middle, similar to the Redmi Note 5 Pro.
