Xiaomi launched Mi Max 2 in India last year for Rs 16,999 and now Xiaomi is working on the upcoming Mi Max 3 smartphone. A new Xiaomi phone with model number M1807E8S has got the necessary 3C certification in China which is said to be none other than upcoming Mi Max 3. The listing indicates the launch of the said smartphone is around the corner.
Although the 3C certification posted on Weibo did not reveal much, the certification has revealed that the alleged Mi Max 3 carries support for 5V / 3A, 9V / 2A and 12V / 1.5A. The devices come with a charger supporting 18W Fast charging output. There is no information available on the specifications of the phone in the 3C listing.
Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun revealed last month that the Mi Max 3 is estimated to be announced in July this year and the 3C certification hints that the device will be launched on time in July.

Earlier, the images of a protective TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethane) case of the Mi Max 3 also surfaced online which revealed its design features. The images revealed that the rear panel of the phone will have a fingerprint scanner. At the top-left corner of the case, there is the cutout for a vertical dual camera setup which confirms the presence of a vertical dual-camera setup on the back.
