There are only a few days left until Xiaomi launches the Mi Mix 2 and according to new leaks the bezel-less smartphone could be launched on September 12. Interestingly, Apple also plans to launch the iPhone 8 on the same day, which is also expected to sport a bezel-less display. Xiaomi has not revealed the release date of the Mi Mix 2, yet speculations about the highly-anticipated phone continue.
A leak from a Chinese website TechWeb claims Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 will be officially launched on September 12 in China. Earlier this year, in June, Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun shared a post on China’s social media site Weibo hinting at the launch of the Mi Mix 2. Jun wrote the launch might happen in the second-half of the year, without confirming the actual date of release. If this is indeed the case, then the September 12 launch of the Mi Mix 2 seems highly likely.
Speculation has been rife about the successor to the Mi Mix, perhaps one of the first few phones to feature bezel-less displays. But, while we still don’t have the concrete details about the Mi Mix 2, the launch of the bezel-less smartphone is imminent. The phone has already got the necessary 3C certification in China, which means the official unveiling is around the corner.
The second-generation Mi Mix will be designed by the same French designer Philippe Starck who previously worked on the original Mi Mix. We haven’t seen the official images of the Mi Mix 2, but we did get a rare glimpse at the design of the bezel-less phone thanks to the concept video shared by the designer. The concept video is a proof the Mi Mix 2 will feature a bezel-less design, like its predecessor.
At the moment, specifications of the Mi Mix 2 are still not confirmed. The premium smartphone might get a Snapdragon 835 processor, either 6GB or 8GB RAM, up to 256GB internal memory, dual rear camera, and a long lasting battery. It is also expected to feature a 3D camera for face recognition. In any case, it’s very likely that Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 will be sold in China and could remain limited to that market itself. Everything about the Mi Mix 2 could be known soon as Xiaomi is likely to showcase the next-generation bezel-less smartphone on September 12.
