According to the source of the leak, the Xiaomi 12S Pro will come with an upgraded Snapdragon flagship chipset. The 12S Pro is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus SoC, which is expected to be announced in China at a Qualcomm event on May 20. The new chipset will be based on TSMC’s 4nm process.

In addition, the Weibo post from Digital Chat Station also states that there will be a flagship phone with a small screen, Full HD+ resolution and a very convenient size. This could mean that the company is also planning to release a follow-up to Xiaomi 12 or 12X, if not both. The Xiaomi 12 and 12X feature a smaller 6.28-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. While the vanilla Xiaomi 12 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC, the 12X is powered by the Snapdragon 870 chipset.
