Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition

On May 31, Xiaomi announced its annual flagship, the Mi 8. But apart from this regular version, there were two other models. The Xiaomi Mi 8 SE is considered as the lightened version of original one, while the Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition is the enhanced variant. It is the first in the world in many aspects. And today, this amazing will go on sale in a few hours (at 19:30 Beijing time) for a price tag of 3600 yuan ($527).

The first and most outstanding feature that makes the Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition unique is the 3D structured light technology. Thus, we are dealing with the world’s first Android-powered smartphone that supports a technology outrunning Apple’s Face ID. However, unlike the iPhone’s speckle structure light scheme, the Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition uses a coded structured light. The scheme creates a millimeter-scale 3D facial model with 33,000 coded lattices projected by a dot matrix projector, and the probability of being cracked can be as low as one in a million.
