    Original Xiaomi Accessories (tempered Glass, Protective Case)

    Mine has a a little less than 1mm border on each side... but that is ok - because if you have a silicon back cover it fits perfectly. BTW: Thanks to Stefano for the links. Bought both versions - they look identical. They take on fingerprints more that the original glass, though.
