According to reliable tipster Digital Chat Station, the handset will boast of a 200MP Olympus camera sensor, a curved display, and a Snapdragon 895 processor, which is expected to arrive as a follow-up to the newly-announced Snapdragon 888+ 5G chipset.
It will flaunt a QHD AMOLED display
The Mi 12 is expected to feature a punch-hole cut-out with slim bezels and an in-display fingerprint reader. On the rear, it might offer a quad camera arrangement.
