At the end of last month, Xiaomi held a launch event for a trio of new products. At this event, they announced the Xiaomi Mi Note 2, Mi VR, and a concept phone that they are calling the Xiaomi Mi MIX. While many people were excited to see the Mi Note 2 and the Mi VR announced, it was actually the Mi MIX smartphone that stole the show.
Since launch, a number of people have been able to get their hands on the device and some are calling it "the smartphone of the future".
What made the Mi MIX stand out from the other products Xiaomi launched, as well as most of the smartphone market today, is the way they designed the bezels. Now, the design of the Xiaomi Mi MIX isn't entirely new. Sharp has been tinkering with this type of design in smartphones since late 2014 (most notably with the Sharp Aquos Crystal). We even saw Dell use a similar design (albeit with slightly bigger top and side bezels) with their Venue 8 7000 tablet.
Xiaomi has only officially announced one version of this Mi MIX concept phone. The company has even said they are unable to do a wider release for it because the ceramic body limits them to producing 10,000 units per month. Still, that hasn't stopped the rumor mill from spinning around this highly sought after smartphone. Last week there were rumors about a mini variant spotted in some low quality photos, but now there could also be a new color in the works.
4 photos show what could be a white color variant of the Xiaomi Mi MIX. Thanks to the newly leaked photos, we get a good look at the front, back and left side of the phone. As with all unannounced devices, this might not ever see an official release, but it's nice to see what Xiaomi is working on behind the scenes.
