Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha specs, prices, deep shock...

After the Mi 9 Pro 5G, the launch was followed by the highly anticipated concept phone, the Mi Mix Alpha. Moving away from the numbering to the Greek alphabet, the future has arrived. The Mix series was all set by Xiaomi to be the next step in technology, remember the very first release that no one in the world expected. Xiaomi, as a world leader, revolutionised full display phone technology. After that, it was all just wear and tear... (as the trolls used to say)

After an incredibly long wait, the Alpha has finally been launched. We were shocked when we finally learned the big truth, that we will get a curved or curved display and how big, how, where?

The screen may tilt to the side, but the WHOLE PHONE WILL BE LOSING! 8-O Shit!

The screen doesn't quite hug the whole phone, and is broken at the back by the camera and antennae bar. The screen-to-body ratio is an amazing 180.6%!

Under-screen speaker technology with optimised sound quality.

Built-in ultrasonic proximity sensor in the screen so you don't squeeze it with your ears.

Antenna placement is key on a phone like this, as it doesn't have much grip and should still hold 5G no matter how you hold it.

Pressure-sensitive virtual buttons on the edge of the screen and key data such as battery charge, volume, BT, etc.

The phone has virtual buttons on both sides and a linear vibrating motor that acts as a physical button.

The rear camera is also the front camera. Just turn the phone around and you can take selfies!

The back screen is also good for a lot of things, if you keep it face up on the desk, the back screen gives you all the information you need about ordering a taxi, public transport, the airport or your smart home.

Artificial intelligence ignores unwanted touches so you don't needlessly squeeze the phone.

In yet another stunning development, Samsung's ISOCELL PLUS image sensor chip has made the Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha the world's first 108 MP phone. With a resolution of 12,032 x 9,024 pixels, it can capture an image of such harsh quality that even an 8x digital zoom won't cut it at home.

Amazing resolution! Let's hope the resolution won't be at the expense of quality, or will it be reduced as it has been? By how much? To 64 MP? 8-)

Full titanium frame, ceramic coated back bar and sapphire glass coating on the camera lenses.

Summary and price

Well, that really struck a chord with me. We were just in awe of Alpha's knowledge. But let's not forget that this is a concept phone, not a mass-produced people phone! It's a technological step, it's not about what case goes on it and how, it's about the implementation. The price is...
