Has Xiaomi been ahead of Apple iPhone 8 one step with Mi Mix?

Is Xiaomi Mi Mix the future of today's smartphones?

Xiaomi, the fourth-biggest maker of smartphones in the world, has recently launched a special "Mi" mobile phone. This 6.4 "monster attracts the attention of netizens because the bezel is rounded with rounded corners, combined with the most powerful configuration of the time and high-end ceramic, with 18 karat gold options for it.


All created a Mi Mix - smartphone is said to come from the future. However, in fact, when we really evaluate what is supposed to make Mi Mix different for the phones that are on the market, it's just a technique to remove the sensor and speakers. On the screen - the rest are already in the tech world, and are integrated into a device. And it makes many people not think, are we seeing a test version of what Apple is "pregnant" for iPhone 8?It has been known for months now, and it's clear that the iPhone 7 is just a "slight improvement" from the iPhone 6s, and Apple is keeping the new design for the iPhone's 10th anniversary. The 2017 marks the first anniversary of the iPhone, and Apple is intent on marking the event with its finest. And it started with the design of the iPhone 8, however, at the moment there is not much "land" for the design of the smartphone to take a new leap: they are equipped with metal design and glass, bezel touch screen and high quality, high resolution camera.

So what is Apple's choice? Thinner iPhone is not a breakthrough. Apple can "bend" the iPhone - just like Samsung did with its product Galaxy Round, or LG with G Flex - but this method has been proven to not achieve high efficiency. Apple is known to often incorporate changes along with convenience, at least in the way they advertise it. The only thing that can be upgraded or optimized for the iPhone's exterior design is the screen material and bezel.Along with HTC and Nokia, Apple has been at the forefront and making use of aluminum as the primary material has become more popular in the smartphone industry. That has helped the Cupertino firm stand firm for years, but there is always room for improvement, and now, owning the monolithic metal design is "everywhere", maybe now. It is appropriate for the US technology giant to continue the process of change again. Pottery is the material used to replace aluminum when companies decide to "lift" their devices - as OnePlus has done with their OnePlus X limited line.

Apple has also joined the "pottery club" after the company has equipped the Apple Watch with a white ceramic watch. And perhaps, they will be selling a limited edition 10th birthday for the next generation iPhone with ceramic cover, which will help them avoid having to produce a large amount of back cover. Ceramic in short time to sufficient number of machines meet the requirements of customers.

However, the advantages of ceramic versus aluminum are obvious. From experience with two versions of OnePlus X, I would say no. But then, the iPhone 7 Jet Black version reminded me that the company liked the glossy, glossy surface, and the strengths of the ceramic material, scratch resistance was a good example. Photos are things you can not feel just by touching it. One thing for sure: A ceramic iPhone would look like a sleek, less profitable masterpiece than the old-fashioned aluminum, and it would certainly be more suitable for the 10th anniversary. launches the first iPhone.Finally, let's look at the outline of the iPhone - the most outdated thing on the company's flagship. They are really huge. Removing them would probably be the biggest change ever made to the front of this "ten thousand mobile phone". Apple has taken a bold step to completely remove the physical key on the iPhone 7. The technology is now available to integrate fingerprint scanners on the display, along with the ultrasonic proximity sensor shown above. Mi Mix, Apple is likely to turn the iPhone 8 into a phone without the edge of the screen.But what's interesting about the high-tech industry is that we do not have to wait for the "virtual" iPhone 8. While I am confident that Apple will make at least some of the potential changes listed in this article, it would be great to see the technology rolled out right now. Xiaomi has launched a ceramic phone, and it will be on the shelves within eight days. Not only that, the Mi Mix also has a piezoelectric speaker system that uses its metal frame to create alternative sound for the speakers.Do you think Xiaomi has perfected every aspect of the "super phone" Mi Mix? Absolutely not. I think this is just an urgent effort from a company that is eagerly seeking the admiration of technology and the admiration of its users. However, I wholeheartedly agree that this phone is the embodiment of the future smartphone, whether it is from Xiaomi, Apple, or anyone else.
