Mi4 has been long rumored to be the next flagship smartphone in Xiaomi’s lineup, and leaked photos with its metal frame appear set to suggest that it might not be too long before the handset goes official.

Said images allegedly show not only that Xiaomi Mi4 exists, but also that it has entered production stage at an undisclosed factory in Shenzhen, and that it will arrive on the market with a metal frame.

On top of that, as GizChina notes, the smartphone is expected to hit shelves with a large, 5.5 or 5.6-inch touchscreen display, as well as with a microSIM card slot inside.

Xiaomi Mi4 might also pack a higher resolution camera when launched, along with a more powerful processor, yet no official confirmation on the matter has been provided as of now. Keep an eye on this space for updates.
