I guess we can all agree (even the grumpy ones) that the Xiaomi Mi MIX was one of the highlights of the previous year and – obviously- a prototype device that most manufacturers will be based upon for future creations. Xiaomi’s CEO however isn’t a shy guy and he recently unveiled certain early information regarding the successor of the first MIX, that will be called Xiaomi Mi MIX II.
Gizchina News of the week
Lei Jun posted some info (along with an image) on his Weibo account and after mentioning that the designer of the Mi MIX, Frenchman, Philippe Starck will be returning to design the new device, he also revealed that this time, they will try to further increase the screen/body ratio up to 93%, higher that the one of the original Mix model!
The two men have already gone over the possible design of the Mi MIX II and admitted that they will try to – once again- be original and groundbreaking just as they did when they launched the first MIX model. After all Xiaomi is not alone in the tri-bezel-less market now. According to analyst Sun Changxu (who claims to have seen an early iPhone 8 prototype), Apple is getting ready to create a similar device and if this is true, then Xiaomi will have to be even more creative with their upcoming Mi MIX II model, don’t you think?
First at all Lei.. fix that problem with the borders of the phone!
I hope they make the selfie camera pop out at the top side of the phone
dude wut?

Instead of screen body ratio what about focusing on making it a real production phone this time and not a prototype? Xiaomi management is really terrible, which explain why they are where they are, no mystery…
That ceramic body thing make it fragile, expensive and practically impossible to manufacture in large volumes.
Its screen to body ratio is already great, but a waste of efforts until large volume production.
And include the best camera they have (from Mi5) this time
mi 5s plus is their best though
