Mi Notebook Pro 15 (2020) to Launch on June 12, Xiaomi Announces

Xiaomi will launch the new Mi Notebook Pro 15 (2020) on June 12 in China. The Chinese tech giant made the announcement on Weibo on Tuesday and as the name suggests, the laptop is a new version of the Mi Notebook Pro 15 Enhanced Edition, launched in 2019. The Weibo post contains a promotional poster that highlight's the laptop's display along with its two USB Type-C ports and memory card slot.  Apart from that, Xiaomi is also bringing its first line of laptops to India on Thursday.

The post on Weibo by Xiaomi does not specify the key specifications of the upcoming laptop. Xiaomi, however indicates that the new Mi Notebook Pro 15 (2020) will "go further" (translated) than the existing Mi Notebook Pro 15 Enhanced Edition. The display of the new Mi Notebook Pro 15 (2020) as seen in the poster highlights its slim bezels on two sides with considerable bezels on the chin and forehead — similar to the older Mi Notebook Pro 15 Enhanced Edition. More details about the new Xiaomi laptop will be known during the launch event on June 12.

Meanwhile, Xiaomi will launch its first Mi Notebook model in India on Thursday. This not only will mark the laptop's India debut but also its global launch.
