The Mi Mix 4 is coming on September 24. Ahead of D-day Xiaomi has confirmed two things about it – the Mi Mix 4 will in fact be called the Mi Mix Alpha and it will have a curved waterfall-style display. The Mi Mix 4 will be so curvaceous, chances are we’re looking at the world’s first all-screen and no-bezel smartphone with a whopping 100 per cent screen-to-body ratio – seemingly justifying the Alpha moniker. 

In a series of promo photos shared online, Xiaomi has teased the one-of-its-kind design of the Mi Mix Alpha. In one of the renders, the phone in question is kept in a bookshelf, alongside several other books. The display of the phone is seen literally melting into the sides, sort of like the recently launched Vivo Nex 3. But while the Vivo Nex 3 has a screen-to-body ratio of 99.6 per cent, Xiaomi is claiming that the Mi Mix Alpha will cross the 100 per cent screen-to-body ratio barrier – or at least touch it. Making it the first of its kind of smartphone – to offer a truly all screen visual experience. 

No further details have been shared, but since Xiaomi is all set to launch the phone in China on September 24, we’ll know soon enough.     

The Mi Mix 4 or Mi Mix Alpha is also expected to be the world’s first smartphone to pack Samsung’s 108MP ISOCELL Bright HMX image sensor. Elsewhere, the Mi Mix 4 is also expected to be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ processor. To recall, its successor, the Mi Mix 3 was also launched in a 5G-ready version earlier in the year. Based on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 chipset (and using its X50 modem) Xiaomi’s Mi Mix 3 brought 5G connectivity to the masses. Something similar will be expected from the Mi Mix 4 as well. 

Xiaomi is gearing for a big hardware reveal event in China on September 24 where it will take the wraps off the Mi 9 Pro and Mi Mix 4 or Mi Mix Alpha. The Mi Mix 4 and Mi 9 Pro 5G phones will also be accompanied by Xiaomi’s new MIUI 11 software reveal.
