The key to success of the Xiaomi Mi MIX is the fact this is the first smartphone with a full-screen design turned from a concept into a real phone. Thanks to it a new era started in the smartphone history. Moreover, it became the highest demanded smartphone feature outrunning the double-curved screens as well as dual-camera modules. But it turns out customers want more. More specifically, they want a larger screen on their phones. Thus the manufacturers have to enlarge the screen-to-body ratio on their upcoming models. Currently, the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 can be considered as the only true full-screen smartphone, as it has only a chin, while the rest of edges practically lack. This was possible to implement due to a few innovative technologies such as a piezoelectric ceramic driver and an ultrasonic proximity sensor. The rest of smartphone makers including Apple don’t own such technologies. So they have to put the sensors, speakers, and other required features on both the forehead and chin. But what if the next Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 phone will come with a 100% screen-to-body ratio and use other innovative technologies? This sounds a bit confusing, but today the supposed prototype renders of the upcoming Mi MIX 3 have leaked via ZEALER. Let’s take a peek at them and make some assumptions.
When the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 has been set to launch in September, its promotion poster carried a phrase of Full Screen 2.0. This simply meant the forthcoming model will come with a number of improvements concerning the bezel-less display technology as well as the features used in the previous model. It was so. The Mi MIX 2 was redesigned. It came with a new screen, and a number of improvements concerning the bugs found on its predecessor.

For example, the piezoelectric ceramic driver means the vibrations are beamed through the glass making users listen to a call without the traditional gap for a speaker. But the first model has some issues related to the caller’s voice quality. It was fixed in the current model. Another case, the ultrasonic proximity sensor means the phone will dim when the display is held against your face. To solve all the problems found on the first-gen model and to bring new ones (technologies, hah) the company launched the second-gen Mi MIX 2 with three innovations – a micro-front camera module, COF (Chip-on-Film) screen driver flexible packaging technology, and active antenna tuning program to enhance the call quality. Thanks to them it could reduce the phone size by 12%. However, still, there is a chin carrying the front camera, and a few sensors.
The leaked renders of the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 showcase the company is going to completely redesign this phone and use a marketing move used in the Meizu Pro 7. As you remember, the latter comes with a second screen placed on the back. The auxiliary display comes at a 1.9-inch diagonal using an AMOLED screen and 240×536 pixel resolution. However, it’s capable of providing only a few functions such as time, pedometer results, music playback, and a few notifications. Seems Xiaomi wants to take this technology/design further, though we have heard Meizu has abandoned it.
According to the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 renders, it will use a 100% full-screen on the front and quite large secondary screen on the back. Thus the chin will be canceled at all. This means the front side will be used as regularly for playing games, browsing the web, and other operations we used to do on the screens of our phone. So all the speakers, camera sensors, and other sensors will be placed on the opposite panel. At this moment, it seems unreal. But people have been talking about the Mi MIX similarly.
It makes sense to make a phone bezelless atthe bottom, you can easily reach there with your thumb, so it’s functionally reasonable. However, why the heck do you need to get reed ot the top bezel? With large screens you can’t reach there with one hand and you need it for cameras, sensors and speakers. Just make a phone with one bezel at the top. That’s it
E moj Stanislave… & how will you hold it? Un-wanted interactions with the digitaliser everywhere. So the top is a less problem than a bottom. You know if you use middle finger on the top you can reach the bottom with the thumb even on the 6.5 (16:9) incher.
Hm, this was never a problem, I tried mi mix and samsung s7 edge. Phone usually lies on my 4 fingers while i use my thumb to control it. But may be it depends on how people use the phone
Well it’s all OK while their is at least some meet behind. For me even thin side bazel’s sometimes can make described problem as I don’t pay attention how I am griping it always.

I like the full screen design like this. But I want them to leave and use cantilever piezoelectric ceramics acoustic technology in the front, like in Mix 1, but better version of it. Maybe only one part (maybe half the width of the frame in the middle, somehow?) of the top frame would make vibrations and that would make sound clearer and less spread away. But this probably not going to work, since for this tech it needs larger portion of the frame, I think. But they could add small whole on the top for earpiece for ear speaker? Sure, sound wouldn’t be as loud and clear and frame would become more fragile in that spot, but I’d like that more than on the back of the phone. About the front camera, it could be removed and left only in the back with that display. But what I would like them to do, to make that back screen to blend in with the back of the phone, so users would have option to use only front screen, make calls etc, and if they want to do selfie, they would use the back of the phone. The perfect thing for Mix 3 would be camera under display, but at the moment, there’s no such tech going on, I only know Apple has a patent for that. But who knows, maybe Mix 5 will have it.
