Xiaomi’s Surround Screen Display Technology
The Xiaomi Mi MIX Alpha looks what the company refers to as its innovative surround screen, although we prefer to call it a “surround” screen.

Mi Mix Alpha Sides
The sides of the phone will show reminders and notifications. The back will be inactive when you are using the phone as usual (that is, using the front display), but it will turn on when you turn the phone over. There you will have a screen that has shortcuts to your most used applications.

When Mix Alpha rotates, the rear camera becomes a front camera. You will use that, the 108 megapixels, to take your selfies.
Mi Mix Alpha Hardware Specifications
The phone works with the premium hardware you would expect. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus CPU, 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. Those are the guts like the Mi 9 Pro 5G, which Xiaomi announced along with the Mi Mix Alpha
Pricing and Availability
Xiaomi states that it aims to start small-scale production for the Mi MIX Alpha at the end of December and the price is expected to start at RMB 19,999, or approximately $ 2815 USD. It is certainly a considerable sum, but it is also likely to occur in very limited quantities. It is exciting to see that such manufacturers are willing to come up with unique concepts of what a future smartphone should look like and we hope that after looking at My MIX Alpha, other OEMs take a step forward and try to produce their own variant. the line.
