Xiaomi has unveiled a new phone called Mi Mix Alpha which is the first Android phone where the screen it literally surrounds his body.
The company reports that the body-to-screen ratio is 180,6% and the non-screen parts are the top and bottom of the phone, as well as a thin column carrying the cameras.
The Mi Mix Alpha it is made of aircraft grade titanium which is obviously lighter than stainless steel. Its main feature is its screen, which wraps around the entire phone. It also has a 108 megapixel camera that can shoot photos with a resolution of 12.032 x 9.024 pixels as well as a second wide-angle camera of 20 megapixels.
It doesn't have the standard front-facing camera (the selfie camera), because you just don't need it, since the rear camera is on one screen and you can pretty well turn the 180 phone to the selfie you want.
Since the phone is almost all one huge screen, it doesn't have the classic physical buttons (except by button power supply at the top) and has pressure-sensitive sides in their place. The rest of its goodies are hidden under the screen, such as the fingerprint reader and an acoustic technology that replaces the standard earpiece and speaker.
Inside the Mi Mix Alpha device you will find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset, 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. It supports 5G and comes with a 4.050mAh battery. Xiaomi says the phone is already in "small-scale production" and will launch in December. It is still unclear whether it will be available outside of China.
Its starting price is currently estimated at 19,999 yuan (or about $ 2,810). Although Xiaomi says the screen will have a hard layer of protection, we don't want to think about what will happen if you get out of hand.
