It has zero bezels at the top and edge, and the bottom chin's bezel has been reduced by 12 percent than its predecessor. While the Mi MIX had a screen-to-body ratio of 87 percent, the Mi MIX 2's screen-to-body ratio is a whooping 95 percent.

Just like Mi MIX, the main components of Mi MIX 2's front panel like ear piece, sensors, speaker and camera has been designed to fit the bezel-less design. It sports a ceramic body and uses Cantilever piezoelectric ceramic acoustic system that allows the sound to be delivered by the screen for calls.

The front facing camera is located at the bottom chin, and is slightly smaller than the one found of Mi MIX.
