The Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi on Tuesday finally took wraps off the highly-anticipated Mix 4 flagship smartphone. It's the first commercial smartphone from the brand with an under-display camera, thanks to a new camera technology that hides the front-facing sensor under the display. Xiaomi calls this technology - 'Camera Under Panel (CUP)'. Alongside the Mi Mix 4, Xiaomi also unveiled five new products at the event, including Mi Pad 5, Mi Pad 5 Pro, Xiaomi Sound smart speaker, Mi TV Master 77-inch and Mi TV 6 OLED TVs. Redmi Note 10 JE With Triple Rear Cameras Launched; Check Price, Features & Specifications
