We are nearing the end of 2017 and rumours of smartphones that will be featured in 2018 are already doing rounds. A new report suggests that Huawei’s next-generation flagship phone P11’s appearance will be quite different from the predecessor Huawei P10 phone.

It seems that Huawei next-generation phone might have the most controversial notch design feature. If the rumours are to be believed, the P11 might arrive with a bezel-less design as well as a notch that can be found on the iPhone X or Essential phone.

According to XDA-Developers, Huawei’s upcoming flagship offering could sport an iPhone X-inspired notch. The company says it obtained such information from firmware files and re-created an overlay image that is referenced in a configuration file dubbed as ‘Round Corner Display.’

The XDA-Developers believes that the smartphone might feature a 6.1-inch Samsung EA8074 CMD TFT LCD display panel with a resolution of 2160x1080 pixels. However, some other files show that it will support 2244x1080 pixels resolution. The publication believes that the upcoming P11 could be having such a resolution because of the presence of a notch.

Earlier reports suggested that the P11 might feature a 40MP Pro triple-lens cameras, equipped with 5x hybrid zoom and will feature a 24MP front shooter.
