From year to year, a huge number of potential and not so buyers complain about the stagnation in the design of smartphones. It's already hard to surprise someone with a curved screen, a self-healing coating, or two screens.

Among these design solutions, one thing stands apart - a frameless case. The fact is that this is objectively the only feature that the user accepted without rejection. It is not surprising, because everyone wants a gadget with the largest possible screen while maintaining compactness. It must be understood that such a design does not imply a complete absence of frames - such a solution would be impractical and would make the device catastrophically fragile.

One of the first smartphones to share this concept was the Sharp Aquous Crystal, which features extremely thin bezels around the display on three sides. Remember, this was 2014. However, due to their rarity and completely ordinary specifications widespread this model did not receive.

Until recently, no one has brought something more worthwhile to the market than Sharp. And then Xiaomi decided to try her hand, which has recently been pleasing us at interesting prices. But in this case, one frameless design was not enough.

The smartphone was named Xiaomi Mi Mix and was a resounding success among netizens. Rumor has it that the first print run sold out in a matter of seconds, but this still does not guarantee anything.
