Xiaomi is making another move to dominate the smartphone market with its upcoming bezel-free flagship phone, the Xiaomi Mi MIX.

Xiaomi launched their latest flagship phone — the Xiaomi Mi MIX — just last month, and the device has gotten Xiaomi fans hyped over its bezel-free design and its ceramic unibody. Unlike competing smartphones that uses aluminum and metal for the unibody construction of their smartphones, the Xiaomi Mi MIX uses a ceramic back panel, frame, and buttons.

However, what really got the attention of smartphone lovers and Xiaomi fans is the 91.3% screen-to-body ratio that the Xiaomi Mi MIX has to offer. The upcoming Xiaomi device sports a large 6.4-inch 2040 x 1080 FHD resolution and 362 PPI pixel density edgeless display that sports a 1300:1 contrast ratio, making it a sleek looking phone.

The device is also expected to come out of the box running on the Android OS v6.0 Marshmallow, and will be backed up by either a 4 GB RAM or a 6 GB RAM, and both will be powered by a Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 821 chipset and a Quad-core 2x2.35 GHz Kryo or 2x1.6 GHz Kryo processor.

Despite the impressive power that the Xiaomi Mi MIX possesses, the device does not have an memory card slot. However, users can still store plenty of applications and files in the device's internal memory which is 128 GB for the base model, and 256 GB for the higher-end model.

As for the other impressive features of the Xiaomi Mi MIX, the phone will have a 16-megapixel rear camera with an aperture setting of f/2.0, coupled with a 5-megapixel front facing camera for selfies. The Xiaomi phone will also support bluetooth v4.2, and will come with a USB- Type-C 1.0 port with a reversible connector.

The Xiaomi Mi MIX will be released in China on Nov. 4 with a price tag ranging from $510 USD up to $590 USD.
