And now, the company has released a new set of teasers, which confirms some of the other aspects of the smartphone. The latest teaser does iterate that the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will have a full-screen slider with a front-facing selfie camera. The mechanism will be similar to the Oppo Find X. However, instead of a motor powered slider, the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will have a different mechanism, which can last longer compared to a motor powered sliding mechanism.

FHD+ display

Another leak about the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 confirms that the smartphone will have an FHD+ display with a resolution of 2340 x 1080px. As the device is speculated to come with an in-screen fingerprint sensor, the Mi MIX 3 is likely to offer a Samsung manufactured OLED panel, similar to the one seen on the Xiaomi Mi 8.

Do note that, even the Xiaomi Mi MIX, Mi MIX 2, and the Mi MIX 2S comes with a similar resolution FHD+ display (IPS LCD panel).

First 5G smartphone with 10 GB RAM

Xiaomi has officially confirmed that the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will have 10 GB of RAM, which makes the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3, the first smartphone with more than 8 GB of RAM. The smartphone is expected to run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC and teased to offer 5G capability, which is a bit confusing, as the modem on the Snapdragon 845 does not support 5G network.
