Xiaomi will be celebrating its 8th anniversary at an event to be held on May 31 and to spice things up, the company will not only launch its newest flagship handset in Xiaomi Mi 7 (or Mi 8, whatever the name) but also the successor to the MIUI 9, which, of course, is called MIUI 10.
In fact, the Chinese OEM has already opened the gates for registrations, but so far, the software is limited to the beta testing program.
