Xiaomi has made the white version of the Mi Mix official. This has a
pearl-like finish, according to Xiaomi VP Hugo Barra, who was on stage to
introduce it to the world.
The specs stay the same as for the initially
revealed black model, as you'd expect. Unfortunately the white Mi Mix, like the
black one, will only be sold in China. An actual release date hasn't been
mentioned. Despite what many had been hoping, Xiaomi still
hasn't announced its international expansion into what are usually called
'developed markets'.
So don't expect to officially buy Xiaomi smartphones in
the US, Canada, or Western Europe anytime soon. As for the Mi Mix, it was
perhaps the most intriguing device of 2016, but it was launched as a concept with limited
production capacity and that situation is unlikely to change. Still, perhaps
it's a good descriptor of things to come from the Chinese company in the
future.
