Huawei, Samsung and OnePlus have already confirmed plans to launch Snapdragon 855 processor-powered 5G phones early next year. Now Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi has conformed that it will be launching a 5G variant of Mi Mix 3 in early 2019.

The updated Mi Mix 3 variant is expected to have a 6.4-inch full-HD+ (1080x2340 pixels) OLED display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. In terms of optics, the 5G variant will not be different from the regular model.
