Just when you thought all the events for the year were now wrapped up, Xiaomi India has teased, what we are hoping will be, its last event of the year.

In a recently shared post on Twitter, Xiaomi has revealed that it will be launching a new product tomorrow, that is 15 December. The tweet is accompanied by an image, which shows a view of a pretty blue beach through, what looks like a pair of sunglasses.

Now, Xiaomi India has kept extremely mum about this product, so there is no buzz as to what the company may be launching tomorrow. However, when you scroll through the post, most Xiaomi fans have placed their bets on a VR headset.

This may be a long shot, but I am hoping this would be some gadget similar to the Snapchat Spectacles.

Separately, Xiaomi is also rumoured to be working on a new smartphone with a triple camera setup, in which, one of the lenses will be a 48 MP one. The Redmi device, which as the company president Lin Bin has confirmed is not the Mi 9, will apparently also features an in-screen camera hole display design, similar to the Infinity-O display. The Infinity-O display is essentially a small hole on the top of the phone's display from where the front-facing camera peeps out.
