A few months later after Mi Mi 2S’s launch, Xiaomi is also expected to announce their flagship smartphone Mi 7. Leaks and rumors have already started coming on Mi 7. Today a Xiaomi smartphone codenamed “Dipper” which is alleged to be Mi 7 appears at the benchmarking website GeekBench. The GeekBench 4.1 listing reveals some of its key specifications.
