The Xiaomi
**Mi Mix 2** which was
**announced** in September and later
**launched in India** in October, did manage to grab a lot of eyeballs due to its looks. Barely two months later, reports revealing the rear panel of the alleged Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 have already started showing up on the internet.

However, according to a report by GSMArena, the image of the rear panel does very clearly have “Mi Mix designed by Xiaomi” written on it which does clear the air about which is the phone being referred to here. As per the image, the Mi Mix 3 is expected to feature a dual-camera setup which is positioned vertically, similar to the module seen on Apple’s iPhone X.
**Xiaomi** has previously tried out a vertical camera setup on two previous occasions (Mi 5s Plus and Mi 6), though their design implementations were completely different.

Another notable change in design here is the rounded corners of the phone, unlike the more rectangular shape used previously. [caption id=“attachment_4254267” align=“alignnone” width=“640”]
