18:9 displays have allowed manufacturers to cram bigger screens into smaller-than-expected bodies. Thanks to the widespread acceptance of the new trend, 5.7-inch or 6-inch displays fitted in a 5.5-inch phone footprint are fairly common sightings these days.
The big phones aren’t going anywhere, though. Xiaomi’s next generation Mi Max 3 will reportedly house an even bigger 7-inch screen in nearly the same Mi Max 2 size casing. If leaked renders are to be believed, the handset will also include two rear cameras.
