While the Mi Note 3 doesn’t have a bezel-less design it’s still a gorgeous looking device. The design is in fact, bears a striking resemblance to that of the Mi 6. It has a 5.5-inch Full HD Display with the new Snapdragon 660 processor at its core. There’s also 6GB of RAM, and up to 128GB of built-in storage. No microSD card slot here, unfortunately.
