Cnet:

Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi has a new flagship phone, and well, it honestly kinda looks like Apple's iPhone X.

The Xiaomi Mi 8 follows last year's Mi 6, skipping the 7 to mark the company's eighth year. It shares a similar notch design and vertical rear cameras to Apple's device. It will also come with infrared cameras located at the notch for face unlocking, a feature also available on the iPhone X.

TechCrunch:

Chinese smartphone firm Xiaomi, which is headed for IPO in Hong Kong, just announced its newest flagship smartphone and a bunch of other products at a launch event in Shenzhen today.

Xiaomi has long been accused of copying Apple, but in recent years its design seemed to develop a little more independence than before. The company’s bezel-less Mi Mix, in particular, won it plaudits for innovative thinking and design. But that all changes with the Mi 8, which — design-wise — is pretty clearly focused on the iPhone X.
