The big challenge was to design an 88-degree glass panel and integrate it 3D. Finishing on all four sides requires self-developed glass processing equipment, hot bending at a temperature below 800 degrees Celsius and high pressure, four different finishing tools and over ten complex procedures.
Thousands of tests were performed to make such a 88-degree curved glass panel. To attach the 88-degree curved piece of glass to the flexible screen, an innovative 3D gluing procedure was used. All these efforts ensure a high screen performance.
Unibody design without ports and without buttons, the new direction for the phones of the future
With Xiaomi’s new discoveries regarding the curved screen on all sides, new possibilities are being created and important progress is being made towards the realization of a truly unibody smartphone, without ports.
With this revolutionary design, almost all sides of the phone are covered by the screen. Thanks to the 46 internally patented technologies, ports and physical buttons can perform their functions through more elegant alternatives. The new solutions offered are revolutionary and will integrate perfectly in the design of the smartphone of the future.
