Xiaomi Mi MIX Mini 5.5 inch version leaks

Last month Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi Mi MIX and Xiaomi Mi Note 2 which is not only a unique device, but one that is looking to change the way we view device displays. The Mi MIX features an almost bezel-less design with the only real “bezel” coming in at the bottom where the front-facing camera is housed.

Still, that could be too much for some people, and Xiaomi apparently knows this. A new leak out of China today claims to show a smaller, 5.5-inch version of the Mi Mix photographed alongside its already unveiled bigger brother.

The Xiaomi Mi MIX Mini will reportedly feature many of the same specs as its big brother, including the Snapdragon 821 processor. However, the main changes that have been leaked at this point include 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, whereas the Mi MIX features a 6GB of RAM option and starts at 128GB of storage.

But if it isn't, then it's going to be exciting to see how small a footprint it will have. Going by what its bigger sibling has accomplished, this could very well end up being a 5.5-inch screened device comparable in size to competitors with 5.2" or 5.3" panels. Rumored specs for the new Mi Mix variant include the Snapdragon 821 chipset, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. The SoC would thus be the same as for the bigger Mi Mix, while the internal storage gets downgraded somewhat.
