Xiaomi has confirmed an event scheduled for August 13 in China, where the company is expected to finally reveal its next flagship smartphone alongside the MIUI 7, the latest version of its ROM.

Teasing the launch event, an administrator on the firm's MIUI forum said, "Xiaomi new product launch event is coming on Aug 13, 2015! And it's confirmed, MIUI 7 will be released!" The launch event will take place at the China National Convention Centre.

While the company invite for the event doesn't direct to launch of a new smartphone; though the "product launch" bit definitely points to a possibility of the Mi 4 successor launch. Considering that the Xiaomi Mi 4 was launched last year in July alongside MIUI 6 version, we can expect the company to reveal the new flagship alongside its latest ROM.
