The Xiaomi Mi 8[2] is a flagship Android smartphone developed by Xiaomi Inc. It was launched at an event held in Shenzhen, China[3] as the successor to the Xiaomi Mi 6. The naming of the Xiaomi Mi 8 (skipping the Mi 7) is in celebration of Xiaomi Inc's eighth anniversary.[4] The Mi 8 draws parallels to the iPhone X, as both the rear and front of the phone are replicated.[5] This design was later carried on to the mid-range Redmi Note 6 Pro and Mi A2 Lite.
