After launching the Mi 11 in China, Xiaomi is preparing to announce details about an international launch of the device at an event on February 8. The company is also set to announce the global release of MIUI 12.5.
Xiaomi previously launched the Mi 11 in China at the end of last year. The launch was particularly notable because it was the first smartphone to be launched with the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. The chip is expected to power many of this year’s flagship 5G devices, including the Galaxy S21 series in the US.
The Xiaomi event is likely to see the company reveal pricing and availability in specific countries. GSMArena notes that Spain has already been confirmed as a new destination for the Mi 11, but other EU countries are likely to get the device as well.
If you haven’t had a chance to buy the Mi 11 yet, you’re in luck. We got our hands on the device a few weeks ago and found it to be a magnificent and powerful device. It’s reminiscent of the Mi 10 Ultra, but even more powerful thanks to the new Snapdragon 888 chip.
We say that it is similar to the Mi 10 Ultra because the Mi 11 features some of the same specifications, such as the beautiful 2K 120Hz OLED display and the squircle-shaped camera module. The devices look and feel very similar, which is not a bad thing. It will be very interesting to see how the Mi 11 is priced in other regions of the world. But if Xiaomi keeps it low, it could be one of the best values on the market.

Xiaomi will also share more release details about MIUI 12.5, which is a fairly modest update over MIUI 12.0. One of the nice new features of the update will allow users to hide pre-installed app icons. This will make it easy for users to keep their home screens nice and minimal.
We will bring you all the details of Xiaomi’s February 8 event as it happens.
