After there were rumors that the Korean company might release the Galaxy S6 with two curved, side displays, Xiaomi released a poster with the exact same concept.
The Concept versus Reality
Xiaomi showed a poster with a device showing two curved edges. At the moment, it is just a concept, and no further information is available. Size of the display, performances, specs, operating system, everything is up in the air. Samsung, on the other hand, already has the Galaxy Note Edge, a phablet smartphone with one curved display. Rumors surrounding the Galaxy S6 suggested that the Korean company might go with two side displays in the S6. At this moment, it seems like Samsung is prepared to do anything to wow its fans and customers.
So, at the moment, we have rumors for the S6, versus the concept of the Xiaomi Arch.

How Does the Arch look?
The poster of the Xiaomi Arch reveals some interesting design concepts. For example, both side displays will show controls and notifications. Even more interesting is that the company uses one of the side displays for live streaming important information. The information includes stock prices and live sport results.
According to the poster, the Xiaomi Arch is the first phone with curved screen on both sides.

The Budget Policy
As always, Xiaomi is banking on its low prices to capture the attention of the customers and appeals to them. The Galaxy Note Edge is a premium device, costing around $700. The Galaxy S6 is rumored to have a price tag of $750. Xiaomi’s devices, on the other hand, rarely cross the $400 border. For example, even the flagship Xiaomi Mi4 is priced at $300. If the company continues the policy with the Arch, it will be hard for Samsung to top them.
