We all were anxiously waiting for Xiaomi Mi Note 2 to be launched but
Xiaomi has something else in their mind. Xiaomi took everyone by surprise at their
press event in Beijing a few days ago with the introduction of a near
bezel-less Smartphone, Xiaomi Mi Mix. It
was launched in October 2016. The phone comes with a 6.40-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 1080 pixels by
2040 pixels at a PPI of 362 pixels per inch.
This phone is not the first of its kind that
we have seen, but , but Xiaomi has definitely improved on what was available
before with devices like the Sharp Aquos Crystal, in terms of design,
aesthetics, specifications, and features. We go hands on with the Xiaomi Mi Mix
It has no bezels on three sides of the display including above it brings
up some interesting questions with regards to the proximity sensor and the
speaker to listen to calls. Xiaomi has managed to circumvent their need by
using a sonar-based sensor and by placing the speaker below the display and
using ceramic vibrations to allow for the audio from a call to be
heard. Everything else has been placed below the display, including the
front-facing camera, resulting in a more upward facing perspective when using
it because of its placement.
Of course, it’s all about the screen with this device, with the Mi MIX
featuring a 91.3% screen to body ratio. The device comes with a 6.4-inch IPS
LCD display with a 2048 x 1080 resolution, and anyone looking for additional
screen real estate for work or play will have no complaints with this phone.
The display and the phone are truly a sight to behold, and is certainly going
to garner a lot of attention.
The Mi MIX is built with ceramic, which gives it a very elegant and
shiny look. The phone is a touch unwieldy however, not only due to its size,
which actually isn’t all that bigger than other smartphones that feature much
smaller 5.5-inch displays, but because the ceramic makes the phone very
slippery. Xiaomi has included a high quality soft leather case in the box that
helps provide a lot more grip.
Under the
hood, Xiaomi Mi MIX is powered by quad-core Qualcomm
Snapdragon 821 processor and it comes with 4GB of RAM. The phone packs 128GB of
internal storage cannot be expanded. As far as the cameras are concerned, the
Xiaomi Mi MIX packs a 16-megapixel primary camera on the rear and a 5-megapixel
front shooter for selfies.
The Xiaomi Mi MIX runs Android 6.0 and is powered by a 4400mAh non removable
battery. It measures 158.80 x 81.90 x 7.90 (height x width x thickness) and
weighs 209.00 grams.
The Xiaomi Mi MIX is a dual SIM (GSM and GSM) smartphone that accepts Nano-SIM and Nano-SIM. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, NFC, Infrared, USB OTG, FM, 3G and 4G (with support for Band 40 used by some LTE networks in India). Sensors on the phone include Compass Magnetometer, Proximity sensor, Accelerometer, Ambient light sensor, Gyroscope and Barometer.
