It was launched in China at CNY 1,999

Chinese handset manufacturer Gionee has started sending media invites for the launch of its M7 Power smartphone in India. The company will unveil the Gionee M7 Power on November 15. The company started teasing the India launch of the handset last week. Gionee's M7 Power was launched initially in China alongside premium Gionee M7. Two of the biggest highlights of the Gionee M7 Power are its large 5000mAh battery and a display with 18:9 aspect ratio.

The Gionee M7 Power was launched in China at CNY 1,999 (roughly Rs. 20,000), and can be expected to be priced similarly in the Indian market. The company is expected to bring Gionee M7 Power in Blue, Black, and Gold colours.

The upcoming Gionee M7 Power is widely expected to compete against some recently unveiled smartphones like Oppo F5 and Vivo V7+.

Look at the specifications, the Gionee M7 Power features a 6-inch 18:9 FullView display and comes with a 720x1440 pixels screen resolution.

OnePlus 5T leaked in full on Reddit and Twitter

OnePlus 5T leaks today seem to have spilled all the beans – specs, photos, and the whole lot. This next-gen smartphone seems to be similar to its predecessor without being nearly as much of a 1:1 comparable device as the 3T was to the 3. Here, OnePlus seems to have given the device the boost it needs not just on the inside, but in its display and around the edges, as well.

Today leaks were provided by Dejii as well as the OnePlus Report community Twitter (unofficial), as well as recent leaks from a variety of sources – all listed in the timeline below this article. They include full specifications as well as the clearest look yet we've gotten of this OnePlus 5T smartphone. The photo – if it's important to anyone behind the scenes – seems to originate in Germany – UPDATE: Apparently some, if not all, of the photos from Germany come from Sarai Griffin.

SEE TOO: OnePlus 5 Review : worth the price hike

This smartphone's leaked specs – not necessarily official, we'll see – include a pair of high-powered cameras at the back on this smartphone and a single (also powerful) camera up front. All camera sensors on this smartphone seem to be Sony IMX-branded, which generally means they're going to be fairly reliable. The backside pair of cameras also has dual LED flash in full effect.

The only difference between the cameras on this device and those of the 5 are in the “Secondary” image sensor, which now has an aperture of f/1.7 instead of f/2.6. This image sensor is now an IMX 376K instead of IMX 350. As such, image quality might be just a tiny bit better – we'll see.

The frontside display is listed today as 6.01-inches AMOLED with a resolution of 1080p FHD+ (Full High Definition Plus) (that's 1080 x 2160 pixels for a pixels per inch total of 401). This smartphone's display has an aspect ratio of 18:9, and its display is covered by a pane of 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 5. The amount of pixels in this device's display will be roughly the same per inch as its predecessor – that had 1080 x 1920, with a shorter display. Longer display, more pixels, same PPI (401).

As you'll see at the head of this article, an image from Juan Pablo shows the OnePlus 5 compared to the OnePlus 5T with dimensions basically matching those we're seeing this afternoon in leaked documents. The corners there might be a bit more curved than they are in the real deal – but still, it's a decent point of reference. That set of renders shows the difference in display on these two devices is significant – especially given the dimensions of the smartphone, which are less than a millimeter different in all directions.

Above you'll see additional images of specs as well as phone images (if any more appear between now and launch time. This smartphone is set to be revealed and up for sale SOON. Stick around as we get our hands on the real deal for review, soon!

Xiaomi Mi MIX 2s Image Leaks, Shows an iPhone X-Like Notch

Highlights

Mi MIX 2s believed to be Mi MIX 2's upgrade

Alleged Mi MIX 2s leaked with an iPhone X-like notch

The smartphone said to sport bezel-less display

Xaiomi may have already started working on its third-generation Mi MIX edge-to-edge display smartphone. If a new image surfaced online is to be believed then the next Mi MIX smartphone will sport an iPhone X-like notch. Chinese Twitter equivalent Weibo has some images purportedly claiming to show the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2s which can be expected to be an upgrade of some sort to the current Mi MIX 2 smartphone. The shared images show the alleged handset in the wild and tip a notch at the top of the handset - just like the infamous notch on the iPhone X.

The leaked images further tip that the next Mi MIX smartphone will retain the highlight of the series which is bezel-less smartphone. Much like the iPhone X, the notch at the top, however, looks weird. The leaked images hint that the alleged Mi MIX 2s will include the sensors, earpiece, and front camera in the notch at the top. Unfortunately, there's no information on the anticipated Mi MIX 2s handset at the moment. The leaked images were posted on Weibo, and were first picked up by GSM Arena.

With Apple jumping into the bezel-less bandwagon with its iPhone X, and other companies like Samsung with its Galaxy S8 as well as other devices like Essential Phone, we can expect the edge-to-edge displays play major role in upcoming smartphones. It's a little surprising Xiaomi would take this route however. While many of its designs arguably copy Apple shamelessly, it has taken great pride in pointing out the innovative design of the Mi MIX series. At its launch events, both in China and India, the company also spoke about how it avoided the notch on its smartphone with decisions like an ultrasonic proximity sensor, the 'hidden sound-guided speaker', and of course, the front facing camera being placed on the bottom lip of the smartphone.

Of course, as with all rumours and leaks, we advise readers to take the above information about the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2s with a pinch of salt, as Xiaomi has yet to make any announcements about its new flagship smartphone and the credibility of the sources cannot be independently verified.

Xiaomi Mi MIX 2, the premium bezel-less smartphone from the Chinese smartphone manufacturer, is currently on sale in some markets including India. The Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 price in India is Rs. 35,999. One of the biggest highlights of the Mi MIX 2 is its 5.99-inch full-HD (1080x2160 pixels) 18:9 display with a pixel density of 403ppi and a DCI-P3 colour gamut.
