Android Headlines reported that the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2s is likely to launch with Qualcomm's current top-end mobile processor, the Snapdragon 835. The premium smartphone will also include 4GB RAM, although there is a possibility that another variant of Mi Mix 2s with 6GB of RAM. It is still uncertain if the rear camera will feature a dual-lens setup or the single image snapper.
