Xiaomi has announced a White color variant of the bezel-less smartphone Mi Mix at CES 2017. In the CES 2017 event, Xiaomi announced the new variant along with a Mi HD Router and a Mi TV 4.
Xiaomi Mi Mix is a limited edition phone that was launched in collaboration with the french designer Philippe Stark in October 2017 and it looks like a phone straight out of a sci-fi movie and boasts a whopping 91.3 percent screen-to-body ratio and bears a ceramic body.
Hugo Barra, Global VP at Xiaomi, at the company’s CES 2017 event confirmed that the new color will be shipping to China later this year. No pricing for the new White Mi MIX smartphone was announced at the event.
The phone houses the latest 2.35GHz Snapdragon 821 and comes in two variants 4 GB of RAM and 128GB of storage and the other one with 6GB RAM and 256GB storage option. Priced at $516 or CNY 3499 and $590 or RMB 3999 respectively. The display comes with a resolution of 2040×1080 and houses on-screen navigation buttons, a first for Xiaomi.
With such design, a lot of changing and chopping needs to be done and the positioning of sensors on the phone had been re-adjusted altogether. The proximity sensor has been replaced by ultrasound sensor, the earpiece has been replaced with a piezoelectric acoustic speaker that uses the metal frame to generate sound, and the front-facing camera is relocated to the chin of the phone.
