Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Video Review: Sliding away too soon?

The Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 was absolutely one of the most eye-catching smartphones of 2018.

Joshua Vergara from Pocketnow shared his thoughts on the Mi Mix 3 in the video below. He talks about how it’s a joy to use a full-screen phone and he laments that the slider trend will be short-lived thanks to punch-hole displays.
