Now returning to today's topic, leaked photos of the Xiaomi Max front panel were scattered all over tech blogs yesterday.

The front panel features a massive 6.4-inch display, capacitive buttons at the bottom and compact side bezels. A physical home button is nowhere to be found, and that means if there is going to be a fingerprint scanner it might be made available at the back like the Redmi Note 3.
