Xiaomi has launched the Mi Mix 2 with ‘custom rounded corners’ at a special product event in Beijing. The Mi Mix 2 is a flagship smartphone from the Chinese company as it tries to take way users from the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and the alleged Apple iPhone X.
Xiaomi’s second-generation Mi Mix sports thin bezels, and the device is made out of metal. The company says a special edition of the Mi Mix 2 will also be made available in the market. Perhaps the biggest highlight of the Mi Mix 2 is its 5.99-inch Full HD+ (2160 x 1080) and the aspect ratio of 18:9. Xiaomi claims the Mi Mix 2 has a 12 per cent reduced bottom bezel and the front glass is curved on all sides.
As speculated before, the Mi Mix 2 ships with a single camera sensor on the back. There’s a 12MP shooter with an f/2.0 aperture and a dual-LED flash. The front side of the phone has a 5MP selfie camera. Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 runs on Android 7.1 Nougat with the company’s MIUI 9 over the top. The device doesn’t support a 3.5mm headphone jack. The Mi Mix 2 is backed by a 3400mAh battery with support for Quick Charge 3.0. The Mi Mix 2 also features a hidden sound-guided speaker and an ultrasonic proximity sensor.
The standard Mi Mix 2 will be available in a black colour option, while the 8GB model comes in either black or white. The 6GB RAM +64GB Mi Mix 2 will cost RMB 3,299 (or approx Rs 32,335), the 6GB RAM +128GB model costs RMB 3,599 (or approx Rs 35,275), and the 6GB RAM + 256GB variant costs RMB 3999 (or approx Rs 39,196). The 8GB + 128GB model will set you back by RMB 4,699 (or approx Rs 46,057).
Xiaomi has launched the Mi Mix 2 one day ahead of Apple’s annual product launch event in Cupertino, California. The latter company plans to launch three iPhone models, notably the iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.
