Xiaomi, which is seeing a successful run in the Indian smartphone market, has launched a new smartphone in the new emerging segment – the segment of huge screen smartphones with sizes somewhere between phablets and tablets. The Mi Max sports a massive 6.44 inches Full HD display with 342 ppi pixel density and despite the bigger screen size the display quality and viewing angles are very good. The phone has a beautiful metallic body and comes with a slim form factor with the thickness of just 7.5 mm and because of that, it becomes a lot easier to hold the phone but, it is in no manner built for one handed usage. The phone, despite the huge screen can fit into pockets of most of your normal pants and shirts. The question coming to your minds must be, isn’t the 5.5 inches screen already big? Is there any practical use of this big smartphone? The answer is, Yes, there are many good reasons to own a phone as big as the Mi Max. The obvious benefit is the big screen itself, which provides much more room for the movies, videos, games, apps, books and even your work related documents. Basically, the bigger the screen the more you will enjoy the experience but, it has to be the balance between the advantages and the loss of comfort for the sake of it and Xiaomi claims that it has found the sweet spot at 6.44 inches. And to make the most of the big screen, Xiaomi has added some software improvements like the ‘Quick Ball’ which includes 5 customizable shortcut functions and sticks on top of every screen like the Facebook ‘Chat Heads’, one of the shortcut is the back key, which doubles up the functionality of the capacitive back key so you don’t have to move your thumb much. The Mi Max is powered by the new Octa-core Snapdragon 652 Processor paired with 4 GB RAM and delivers amazing performance and can handle everything. It runs on Android Marshmallow based MIUI. The 16 MP rear and 5 MP front cameras are also more or less the same used in Redmi Note 3, which means they are good but better cameras are available at the same price. It is dual sim phone with 4G support and includes whooping 128 GB storage onboard which can be expanded upto 128 GB but, uses the hybrid slot. The phone packs a fast fingerprint scanner and Infrared sensor. Another good thing about the phone is its huge non-removable 4850 mAh battery which provides good battery backup. Overall, the Mi Max won’t be the right choice for most of the users but those who have fallen in love with the phone’s bigger screen and its advantages and are ready to sacrifice a bit of comfort in handling the phone will not find anything better than this, it is almost perfect for its intended user type. Also, those planning to buy a 7 inches tablet can also settle with this.
