In the image, the Xiaomi Arch looks a lot like the company’s Mi Power Bank, with two curved edges, comprising of the screen. The display seems to be curving around the edges of the smartphone’s body. It looks more like a concept image than an actual smartphone.

Xiaomi is also expected to unveil the Xiaomi Mi5 at CES 2015, which is just over a week away. This will be accompanied by the Mi Pad 2 tablet as well. An image of the Mi5 had also been leaked recently, suggesting a bezel-less smartphone, similar to the Sharp Aquos Crystal smartphone.
