Gizchina News of the week
Xiaomi has attached great importance to animations on its interface. They created multiple overlapping layers for a much more realistic blur. This makes translucent animations much more pleasing to the eye and realistic.
Also, MIUI 12 renews the settings interface, an unusual change by Xiaomi, which does not usually alter the interface of the phone too much. It has a simpler design in these settings, in addition to being more visual. It will allow users to move comfortably in them. Along with this new interface, more animations are available when performing actions, such as pressing a button or moving elements.
In April, MIUI 12 was presented at an online event in China. Xiaomi thus presented the new version of its interface that beings a series of new functions. After this presentation, the brand was already launching the first beta of this new interface for a series of phones. It was available only in China. But, earlier in May, the international presentation of the interface has already been held. MIUI 12 Global is official and we already know the news that the new interface of Xiaomi brings us. It has begun to be available shortly to the phones of the Xiaomi and Redmi brands worldwide.
