How to Hide the Notch on Xiaomi and Redmi Phones

The screens of mobile phones have changed radically in recent times, making us increasingly have a larger size and the frames are reduced until they practically disappear. In Xiaomi and Redmi mobiles we have seen how notch appear very frequently in almost all models, something that many do not convince all users, but that we can easily hide.

The most important section of our mobile we can say that it is the screen, since it is where our activity and our view are focused, making the way we see information very important. That is why we want to show you how you can hide the notch of all Xiaomi and Redmi models. It does not matter if we find the classic notch in the form of a drop of water, larger as the Xiaomi Mi 8 or conversely it is a hole in the screen that we have seen in the Xiaomi Mi 10.

Steps to remove the notch

To make the notch disappear from our mobile we have to follow some simple steps that are available in all the Xiaomi mobiles that integrate it, it does not matter if you have MIUI 10 or MIUI 11. First we have to enter the Settings and then we head to the screen section. Within this we will see at the bottom the Notch button and status bar where we will have several options regarding the top of the screen on Xiaomi and Redmi mobiles.

At this point we have to touch on the first option called Hide notch , but we also find customization options that allow us to show notifications in the top bar or if we want the name of our operator to appear.

Customize how you prefer to hide the notch

At the time of hiding the notch we are going to find three options, the first one will be the one that we have activated and that shows us the notch, placing the notifications in the free spaces of it. The second option that appears to us is to hide the notch without moving the status bar , which means that the notifications will change color so that we can see them, but they will continue in the same position, making us not lose screen space.

The last option hides the notch and changes the position of the status bar , making notifications go down to the bottom and our mobile reminds us of the ones we could find years ago.
