Xiaomi has a habit of releasing official press renders of a device before it even gets announced, and the company (well, the company's co-founder, Lin Bin) has just done exactly that with its upcoming Mi Max 3 phablet. If you take a look at the gallery down below, you will be able to see the company’s upcoming Mi Max 3 phablet, and thanks to various leaks that had surfaced in the last couple of weeks, we more or less know what to expect in the spec department as well. Before we begin, however, it is worth noting that the phone will become official on July 19 in China.

As you can see in the provided images, the Mi Max 3 will essentially look like a larger version of the Mi 6X. The device will be made out of metal, while it will sport a vertically-aligned dual camera setup on the back. In-between those two cameras you’ll be able to find an LED flash, while a rear-facing fingerprint scanner will also be a part of the package. The phone’s bezels will be noticeably thinner than they were on the Mi Max 2, which was to be expected, as Xiaomi decided to trim down bezels on pretty much every one of its smartphones in 2018. The phone’s display will sport rounded corners, and the back side of the device will be slightly curved. All the physical keys will be located on the right-hand side of the Mi Max 3, while its SIM card tray will be accessible from the left. The device will include an IR blaster on the top, and its dual camera setup will protrude on the back a bit. The phone will be available in Black, Blue, and Gold color variants, at least according to the provided images.

The Mi Max 3 will be a large phone, as expected, it will sport a 6.9-inch fullHD+ display, if rumors are to be believed, while we’re expecting it to pack in 4GB / 6GB of RAM and 64GB / 128GB of storage. The device will be fueled by the Snapdragon 710 64-bit octa-core processor, while it will ship with Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box, and the company’s MIUI 9 skin will be included on top of it. The phone’s battery will almost certainly be larger than 5,000mAh, rumors are claiming it will sport a 5,500mAh unit, but we’ll see.
