But it now faces fierce competition from mid-priced phones from makers such as Xiaomi Corp. Apple has often stated its plan to increase its revenue from paid services, such as Apple Music and iCloud.

Since then, we’ve seen the Oppo Find X,the  Mi Mix 3 , and the Honor Magic  2 bring their own takes to this concept to deliver breathtakingly high screen-to-body ratios. The Honor Magic 2,  in particular, is Honor’s latest experimental phone, and not just because of the slider camera, but also because of its software. One of the highlights of the first Honor Magic was its curved display and outstanding design. The Honor Magic 2 stands out because of its 6 cameras, 3 of which are part of the slider, in-display fingerprint scanner, and Yoyo digital Assistant (which sadly is catered to the Chinese market only as the phone is only sold there.)
