The transparent body of the future Xiaomi 16 flagship will show the inner world of the smartphone: an insider revealed the design of the gadget
There is a trend among smartphone manufacturers to release models in technodesign, when buyers are offered a gadget that instead of a glossy surface uses cases with exaggeratedly open screws and visible internal components. The ambassador of this approach was the British company Nothing, and from the Chinese models we will single out Realme Neo 7 Turbo. Futuristic design was also offered by Xiaomi in the Mi 8 Explorer Edition, Mi 9 Transparent Edition and Mi 10 Ultra models, but soon another interesting novelty may come out from the company.
Here's What We Know
A reputable Chinese insider Digital Chat Station reported that Xiaomi may unveil a flagship Xiaomi 16 smartphone with a unique "transparent" design in early 2026.
The company will again use some ideas of its previous models, but the back panel will be completely transparent, which will make the "stuffing" of the smartphone visible.
