Xiaomi brought Mi Air 2 Pro back in October, but now the TWS earphones are getting a successor. The company has posted a teaser on its Weibo profile, revealing a new case with the new Xiaomi logo on the hinge. The image also tells us when the launch will take place – this Thursday, May 13. Meanwhile, a leakster posted an alleged image of the actual buds, which will have rubber tips.

Xiaomi said the upcoming set will be the company’s flagship noise-cancelling earphones, without clarifying if there will be Active Noise Cancellation – something we are yet to see from the maker. However it’s certain the tight seal of the rubber tips will improve the passive cancellation.

The design of the case is inspired by Xiaomi’s new round logo. All the corners from previous designs are polished to the point of having no corners at all, and we hope the case will retain its wireless charging capabilities, as well as inheriting the 500 mAh battery capacity from the Mi Air 2 Pro.
