The concept smartphone features a "surround screen" design, which is a screen that goes around the entire device. Xiaomi has indicated that it will produce the device in limited quantities, which will go on sale in December for a price point of $2,800.
The sides of the device are part of the huge display, and they show battery levels and the network signal.
