It's without doubt that
Xiaomi are working on the next generation Xiaomi M3, but
what is surprising are the
rumours suggesting a mid 2013 release date!
Purported specification
details of the Xiaomi
M3 have been published here on
Gizchina before, but these
details also came with the assumption the new phone won't go on sale until Q3 of 2013, however reports are suggesting we might be seeing M3's shipping a little earlier, with a possible announcement coming in March!
Like all of these
rumours we will have to wait and see how they pan out, but to see the Xiaomi
M3 sooner would make sense as most companies are opting for larger 5-inch
1080 phones which dwarf the current M2.
The Xiaomi
M3 is expected to arrive with Nvidia's
Tegra 4 quad-core processor, at least
2GB RAM, 12 mega-pixel rear camera and a Japanese made
1080 HD display.
