Mi Mix 3 5G specifications, features

The Mi Mix 3 5G is touted to continue the Mi Mix 3 legacy, including the ceramic body and the slider mechanism. This means aside from the new chipset and 5G support, the Mi Mix 3 5G has the same hardware as of the original Mi Mix 3 that debuted in China back in October last year.

To highlight how 5G is going to transform the user experience, Xiaomi at its conference showcased a 5G video call demo -- powered by Orange.

"When we look at the opportunity ahead of us for 5G, we see an opportunity to create winners and to bring change to the mobile industry, we believe Xiaomi is one of those companies," said Cristiano Amon, President, Qualcomm, at the Xiaomi event.

The Mi Mix 3 5G features a 6.4-inch full-HD+ (1080x2340 pixels) OLED display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and 93.4 percent screen-to-body ratio. As we mentioned, unlike the Mi Mix 3, the Mi Mix 3 5G is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC paired with a Snapdragon X50 5G modem. There is also a hybrid cooling system and a four-sided curved ceramic body.

Xiaomi has provided a dual rear camera setup on the Mi Mix 3 5G along with two 12-megapixel sensors enabling 960fps video recording and AI scene detection. For selfies, the smartphone has a dual camera setup at the front -- available on top of the magnetic slider. The dual selfie camera setup has a 24-megapixel primary sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary sensor. The frontal sensor supports AI live selfie video bokeh.
