Xiaomi Mi Max 3 comes with taller display, bigger battery, faster processor
Everything is better on the Mi Max 3
After getting leaked numerous times, the Mi Max 3 is finally official. Xiaomi‘s newest phablet ticks all the boxes as a 2018 phone. If you’re a fan of big smartphones, this could be your next handset.
The Xiaomi Mi Max 3 is now officially unwrapped and it’s everything the leaked info has been telling us. It’s a phone with a big display at 6.9 inches, sports a Full HD+ resolution, and has an 18:9 aspect ratio. With a display at nearly seven inches diagonally, the Mi Max 3 is already in the tablet category. Also, the Mi Max 3 has a metal unibody as a premium touch.

Of course, a large display means a big battery. The Mi Max series is known to be one of the long-lasting phones in the market and with a bigger 5500mAh battery, it’s going to be champion once again.
The rest of the specs of the Mi Max 3 are borrowed from the Redmi Note 5. It runs the same Snapdragon 636 processor, has a dual rear camera setup with a 12- and 5-megapixel combo, and has an 8-megapixel snapper for selfies. There’s also dual VoLTE on board along with dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0.

As for ports, the phone still has a 3.5mm port and USB-C reversible connector. Speaking of, the battery supports Quick Charge 3.0 for faster charging through USB-C.
MIUI 9.5 comes out of the box with plenty of AI features in the camera and voice assistant. An update to MIUI 10 will be available at a later date.
The Mi Max 3 is going to be available in Black, Champagne Gold, and Blue. There will be two configurations: a 4GB memory + 64GB storage model which is priced at CNY 1,699 (US$ 250) while the 6GB memory + 128GB storage option is at CNY 1,999 (US$ 295).

GIGABYTE to focus on end-to-end AI infrastructure, deployment at COMPUTEX 2026
Showcase to highlight how production AI is implemented, used on real-world scenarios
GIGABYTE has announced its showcase for COMPUTEX 2026, centering on the theme “Future Landing.”
Moving away from conceptual AI training models, the company’s exhibit next month will focus strictly on the immediate implementation, scaling, and real-world operation of production AI infrastructure.
According to the company, the exhibit addresses a major industry shift: the transition of AI from development phases into large-scale inference and physical operation.
Visitors can expect an interactive breakdown of the AI infrastructure lifecycle, structured into three distinct zones: Ready, Deployable, and Happening.
The “Ready” phase highlights fully validated systems simulated at GAIFA (GIGABYTE AI Factory Accelerator), the company’s dedicated facility in Taiwan.
To demonstrate rapid scalability, the “Deployable” section will feature modular, prefabricated infrastructure units that integrate compute, cooling, and power, all managed via the proprietary GIGABYTE Pod Manager (GPM) software.
Lastly, the “Happening” zone will showcase live, practical applications of physical AI and localized healthcare inference. Attendees can observe a live “real-to-sim-to-real” automation pipeline showing how AI models move from virtual simulation into active robotic systems.
GIGABYTE will also demonstrate point-of-care medical AI running locally, including real-time polyp detection and bone marrow analysis.
In addition to the primary enterprise infrastructure booth (first floor), GIGABYTE will operate a secondary exhibit on the fourth floor.
This dedicated space will showcase edge and end-user applications, specifically highlighting its AI TOP series. This demonstrates how the company’s hardware scales down from massive data center architectures to deskside deployments.
The GIGABYTE booths can be visited from June 2 to 5, 2026 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center (Hall 1):
- 1F K0802 (Enterprise)
- 4F M0520 (Consumer)

Xiaomi has officially launched its Mi.com online store in the Philippines. This standalone website offers a more direct and centralized shopping experience, as Xiaomi has shifted away from third-party marketplaces.
