The 2016 appeared in Mi Mix of Xiaomi (Xiaomi Mi Mix) and it was one of the best phones of the year. The Chinese company is reportedly preparing to unveil the device's successor, the Mi Mix 2, on September 11 – a day before the iPhone 8 launch.
The timing is extremely interesting because it shows that the Chinese company is interested in attracting iPhone buyers with a premium device that comes with a much-discussed feature: a screen without a tether and without a home button.
We should mention that, like the previous model, the device was designed by the world-renowned designer productby Philippe Starck.
From the presentation of the Mix Mi, to its launch in the market there is a preparation time for Xiaomi to develop the custom Android Oreo for the device (or rather, for its devices).
The latest version of Google's mobile device is currently only available on Sony's new Xperia XZ1 devices, and Pixel and Nexus will soon receive their updates.
Το ίδιο ισχύει και για το MIUI9, την επερχόμενη έκδοση του custom λογισμικού της Xiaomi για τις συσκευές Android. Αυτή τη στιγμή βασίζεται στο Android Nougat και έχει σχεδιαστεί για να προσφέρει λειτουργίες όπως η υποστήριξη εφαρμογών splitscreen, αναζήτηση φωτογραφιών (παρόμοια με αυτή του Google Photos), a smart app launcher and more.
It is not clear whether or not she can Xiaomi to update its software to support the latest version of Android until release of Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, but the company said it hopes to release MIUI 9 by the end of October.

The other big question surrounding the launch of the Mi Mix 2 is whether it will be available overseas Chinas. In the older model, the company decided to release it initially only in China.
