Beijing, July 12 (IANS) Chinese smartphone manufacturer <keyword id="874458" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Xiaomi">Xiaomi</keyword> has patented a new smartphone with an all-around screen like Mi Alpha with a single 108MP camera. The patent was filed by Xiaomi in January but the documentation, as well as images, were only published recently, reports GizmoChina. In terms of design, the main display flows over the edges of the device and even loops around to reach the back panel. On the back, there is a second display that starts just millimeters from where the front one ends. There's only one physical key (power button) and a secondary mic at the top, whereas the bottom houses the speaker, primary mic, and USB Type-C port. Earlier, the company also patented a new dual-display smartphone with quad rear cameras set-up. According to the patent, the primary display is like any other phone with ultra-slim bezels and earpiece up top. The secondary display on the new Xiaomi-patented phone is as small in size as the quad-camera housing on the back.

Key figures have been vocal in their criticism of the Fed's battle with inflation and how it dealt with it through the pandemic, with many fearing a recession and doubting the Fed's ability to deal with inflation effectively.Economist <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/bonds/federal-reserve-mohamen-elerian-inflation-recession-economy-prices-investors-2022-3">Mohamed El Erian said</a> last week, "The whole point of forward policy guidance by the Fed is to bring along the markets in an orderly fashion," El-Erian told <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meLUXzBa_GQ&amp;t=28s&amp;ab_channel=BloombergMarketsandFinance">Bloomberg</a>. "Instead, we're seeing the markets run away further from the Fed and do so in a disorderly fashion, and that is why the risk of a policy mistake is so high."He attributed the volatility in the market to what he said were mixed messages from the Fed on rate hikes and worried about recession."Now that you're in this position and you're going to end up making a mistake, which is a high probability outcome, I'd rather make a mistake of letting inflation persist than throw this economy into recession," El-Erian said.Billionaire investor and "Bond King" Jeff Gundlach has been sharply critical of the Fed."Their job is to fight inflation," <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/jeff-gundlach-inflation-outlook-warning-recession-fed-rates-stock-market-2022-3">he said</a> about the Fed on March 9. "They've done a terrible job of it so far."The Fed this month hiked interest rates for the first time since 2018 by <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/federal-reserve-hikes-interest-rates-inflation-higher-costs-loans-mortgages-2022-3?r=US&amp;IR=T">0.25 percentage points</a> to tackle inflation.Chair Jerome Powell signalled even <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-news-today-powell-signals-openness-aggressive-rate-hikes-2022-3?utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">more aggressive rate hikes</a> will come if needed, comments that sparked a sell-off in the bond and equity markets. The Fed will also reduce its balance sheet significantly and cut down on its asset holdings worth trillions of dollars. It has been unclear on its exact plans.The Fed pulled rates close to zero in March 2020 as COVID's spread sparked widespread lockdowns and froze economic activity across the US. The low rates helped people and businesses borrow cash at low costs, giving Americans a major support as the country slid into the deepest <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-a-recession">recession</a> in nearly a century.Inflation is running at <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/inflation-cpi-price-growth-gas-prices-february-2022-3">its fastest pace in four decades</a>. The consumer price index (CPI), which measures the price of everyday goods and services, rose by 7.9% in February compared with a year ago, the highest since 1982.Billionaire investor Carl Icahn said in February the Fed's <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/carl-icahn-inflation-alarm-fed-money-printing-party-bear-market-2022-2?utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">money-printing "party" will end badly</a> because it can't control inflation and predicted trouble for the economy."I really don't know if they can engineer a soft landing," <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/carl-icahn-recession-inflation-fed-russia-ukraine-looming-market-outlook-2022-3">Icahn said</a>. "I think there is going to be a rough landing."

Dubbed the ‘Mi Band X’, this fitness band will not have a band or clasp but will instead use a magnet to fit both ends. This will be completely different from the current fitness bands <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/xiaomi-has-overtaken-apple-as-the-worldaposs-second-biggest-smartphone-seller-hereaposs-how-the-major-players-rank-/slidelist/84474479.cms">Xiaomi</a> offers under its Mi-series. It will also be very futuristic among fitness bands and trackers in general. Details of the Mi Band X were <a href="https://www.gsmarena.com/leak_suggests_that_xiaomi_is_working_on_a_mi_band_x_with_a_360_flexible_display-news-50274.php">leaked</a> on Chinese blogging site Weibo (via GSMArena). The leak shows pictures of presentation slides explaining the product. The Mi Band X is said to offer a 360-degree display design, and it will be thin and light. It could also feature a transparent display, according to an image shared on the site. The display on the Mi Band X is also said to be scrollable. Xiaomi is yet to announce any futuristic fitness band like this but it looks more of a concept device. The company has made concept devices such as the Mi Mix Alpha which has a surround display that wraps around the phone. As for the Mi Band X, it isn’t the first time we’re hearing of this concept. The<a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/nubia-unveils-alpha-the-world-s-first-commercially-available-wearable-phone-with-a-flexible-display-1027990124"> Nubia α (Alpha)</a> showcased at MWC 2019, attempts to offer something similar with its wearable phone functionality. It has a 4.01-inch foldable flexible display with support for mid-air gestures. It has features like Bluetooth calling, sports and health monitoring, and real-time message reminders. The wearable even has a 5-megapixel camera. The Mi Band X would be more futuristic though, with its expected features like a transparent display that takes up the entire device. Like the Mi Mix Alpha, Xiaomi is expected to keep the Mi Band X as a concept device or available in limited quantities, when it launches.

But that's fine, because it's just a concept that no one can buy or use right now.However, Xiaomi appears to have thought of that, even for the concept. The company said the Mi Mix Alpha's glass is 2.88g sapphire. To be honest, I'm not sure that that means, but I do know that sapphire is designed to be extremely scratch-resistant.&#xa0;Oh, and the Mi Mix Alpha's frame would be made of "TC4 aerospace-grade titanium alloy" that Xiaomi says is three times as strong as steel. Casual.&#xa0;There's no telling how much this marvel costs, or even if it'll ever make it to store shelves. After all, Xiaomi itself said it's a concept. Either way, it should be a hint to all smartphone makers for what to do in the next few years. I am ready for it.&#xa0;Check out the Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha:
