Xiaomi Mi3 prototype spotted in the wild!

It’s is exactly one month until Xiaomi will finally unveil the Xiaomi Mi3 and already prototypes of the phone have been spotted in public under testing.

This photo was taken on a subway by an eagle eyed Xiaomi fan showing what could be a prototype version of the Xiaomi Mi3 undergoing testing. As we can see from the picture the body is more angular and edgy than the current Mi2S and looks remarkably like the leaked screens and images posted by us earlier this month,

It also appears that the rear of the phone has a yellow plastic shell and features the power/lock button and the volume rocker on the right hand side like current Xiaomi phones.

We can also make out the Mi logo in the top left, what appears to be a prototype number in the top right and this also looks like the first Xiaomi phone to get back lit capitative buttons!

The bulky protector is likely designed in such away as to try and disguise the complete look of the new phone and we hope this isn’t a sample of a Xiaomi silicone protector as it is truly awful!

Reports from sources close to Xiaomi tell us the Mi3 will boast a 5-inch 1080 display, 1.7Ghz qua-core processor, 2GB RAM, 13 mega-pixel rear camera, NFC, 3500mAh battery and may ship with a new version of MIUI.
