Xiaomi will launch an Amazon exclusive device June 7, could be Redmi S2

The Chinese giant will be releasing the successor to their Redmi Y1 which will be a selfie focus phone that will launch exclusively on Amazon India and will be the first Indian-released device to come running the latest MIUI 10 out of the box.

By now it was quite obvious that Xiaomi was planning the rollout of their next smartphone in India on June 7. A week after the Chinese smartphone manufacturer started sending media invites for the upcoming Redmi smartphone, Xiaomi has revealed that their next device will be Amazon exclusive product in India.

With a revealing set for June 7th, it’s widely teased that the new selfie-focused smartphone could well be the Redmi Y2, the successor to last year’s Redmi Y1. While many have speculated that the Redmi Y2 will be the Indian rebranded version of the Redmi S2 that was launched in China earlier last month, Xiaomi hasn’t stopped teasing its upcoming smartphone by itself.

Xiaomi Selfie-centric smartphone

Rumours and leaks aside, the Chinese company has revealed through Amazon’s marketplace that the next Redmi smartphone will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. To imitate and rather mock Oppo’s Realme lineup, Xiaomi has also claimed that their newest “Real You” smartphone will equip a fingerprint scanner at the back, unlike its Oppo counterpart.

Xiaomi has also made it clear that their upcoming selfie-centric camera would not only feature a 16-megapixel AI-enabled front camera but also an Selfie Light. To add to Realme’s wounds, the “Real You” smartphone will also come with a dual camera setup, which looks to be aligned vertically like the one on the Redmi Note 5 Pro and the Chinese Redmi S2.
