Mi 5X launch cancelled? Xiaomi to launch new series of smartphones in India

We were looking forward to the global launch of the Xiaomi Mi 5X as the Chinese company had shared a picture on their Twitter handle, which read 'flagship dual camera'. While the teaser hinted at the probable launch of Mi 5X in India, but it seems the story has changed.

Xiaomi has more or less confirmed that its upcoming smartphone will not be Mi 5X but instead, the new smartphone will mark the launch of a new series. The company has shared a new video teaser on twitter which says that the company is going to introduce an entirely new series. Although "Flagship Dual Camera" is mentioned in the new teaser as well.

While Xiaomi has made it a mysterious case, with the new teaser we can only speculate that the new series will be an Android One phone. As far as rumors go, the device will most probably be called Mi A1.

To elucidate Xiaomi has reportedly been working on a project with Google to develop an Android One smartphone. The device seems to be already in the phase of development and it will most likely take in the design language from Xiaomi's mid-range flagship Mi 5X which also comes with a dual camera smartphone. Reports suggest that it ill be a stock Android Xiaomi Mi 5X version.

Meanwhile, Google is collaborating with Xiaomi for their Android One device, as the Chinese company has grown significantly in the Indian market. Further, Xiaomi has already become a trusted brand in the country.
Unfortunately, we do not have any official word from the company yet. But again, we do not have to wait much longer as the launch event is scheduled for September 5 in India, so everything will be revealed at that time. Mark your calendars.
