Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Now Official: Delivers Notch-less Full Screen Experience via Magnetic Slider Body

As promised, Xiaomi just moments ago has officially unveiled yet another new phone under its wings called Mi Mix 3. The new phone features a rather interesting solution in order to deliver edge-to-edge full-screen experience while still able to avoid having a notch on its display.

The solution comes in the form of a magnetic-based sliding body which would also reveal the phone’s dual front camera setup which consisted of a Sony IMX576 24MP sensor alongside a 2MP DOF camera. That’s not all though as users can also utilize the sliding mechanism to answer calls, access shortcuts drawer, or start a specific app.

Xiaomi claimed that the slider mechanism which utilizes neodymium magnets has a life expectancy of 300,000 cycles. As for the display itself, Mi Mix 3 features a 6.39-inch Full HD+ AMOLED panel and has a 93.4% screen-to-body ratio.

In terms of rear camera, the Mi Mix 3 is equipped with a pair of 12MP sensors alongside 2x optical zoom, 4-axis optical image stabilization system, and 960fps slow-motion video capture capability. Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, the phone can be obtained with up to 10GB of RAM and 256GB internal storage.

Price-wise, the Mi Mix 3 with 6GB/128GB configurations will be made available for CNY 3299(about RM 1981). On another hand, the 8GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB models will go for CNY 3599(~RM 2161) and CNY 3999 (~RM 2402) respectively.

The Mi Mix 3 Palace Museum Edition which is the only variant that offers 10GB of RAM can be obtained for CNY 4999 (~RM 3002). This particular model is also accompanied by a gold statue and free data alongside an elaborate specially themed packaging. All variants will come together with a phone case and 10W wireless charger as standard.

To be available in China this coming November, its availability in Malaysia is not yet known for the time being.
