When Xiaomi opened sales for the Mi Mix, the device sold out in 10 seconds. That is not an error, as the massive demand for the smartphone and the low initial supply strategy of Xiaomi combined to allow the Mi Mix to achieve such a feat.

Huawei, however, might be looking to replicate the same success that Xiaomi has found with the Mi Mix, and a leaked image provides a first look at the device that many are expecting would be a worthy challenger to Xiaomi's successful smartphone.

Meet The Huawei Honor Magic

The first leaked image of the Honor Magic has been making the rounds online, revealing the smartphone while a user is setting up its fingerprint recognition technology.

Huawei is describing the Honor Magic as a concept device, similar to how Xiaomi described the Mi Mix, showcasing the best technology that the company can incorporate into a smartphone. While the general notion is that concept devices are not for sale, Xiaomi broke the mold by releasing the Mi Mix into the market, though only in China.

The image of the Honor Magic revealed a device that has the fingerprint scanner at the front, below its display, with what is one of the smallest bottom bezels that has ever been designed for a smartphone. With the top bezel that contains the front-facing camera also shown to be very small and the screen featuring curved display technology, the Honor Magic could be the new king of display-to-body ratios.

What We Know So Far About The Honor Magic

While nothing has been officially confirmed by Huawei regarding the upcoming device, it is expected that the Honor Magic will come with top-end specifications that will allow it to rival the Mi Mix.

There have also been previous rumors that the Honor Magic will not come with a built-in speaker or camera, with the smartphone to acquire the functionalities presented by these components through some kind of modular system.

Aside from these, nothing else is known about the Honor Magic, but we now know, if the leaked image is true, that Huawei's concept smartphone looks stunning.

Going Up Against The Mi Mix

The Honor Magic will be tasked to challenge the Mi Mix, which packs a 6.4-inch 1080p bezel-less LCD curved screen, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 821, up to 6 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage, and a 4,400 mAh battery.

Will Huawei be able to challenge Xiaomi's Mi Mix with the Honor Magic? We'll know for sure once more details for the smartphone are released.
