Xiaomi button-less smartphone to arrive next year


Xiaomi is allegedly working on a button-less smartphone, which it will launch in the first half of next year. It is apparently codenamed Zhuque, and its standout feature will obviously be its total lack of buttons.

Unfortunately the source of this information doesn’t actually know what will replace the buttons – so it could be combination of gesture controls, pressure-sensitive edges, or voice commands.

The phone will also have an under-display selfie camera, which will hopefully be better than Samsung’s efforts in this space. The Zhuque will be powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8+ Gen 4 SoC, which will also be used in the Xiaomi 15S Pro, a device that’s expected to land between April and June 2025.

It seems like the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 4 will be an improved version of the 8 Gen 4 which is due to launch this October.

As for the Zhuque, we’ll have to wait and see if it will be a success or more of a niche demo product like the Meizu Zero. Remember the Meizu Zero? Exactly.
