DSCC founder and CEO @Ross Young broke the news today that Xiaomi is expected to launch three folding screen mobile phones in 2021. They are the outer folding type, the inner folding type, and the clamshell type, which are the three mainstream forms. In addition, the design of the outward-folding model is similar to Huawei Mate X, so the size is larger than the other two models.
Later, another user responded to @Ross Young’s revelation and posted several patented appearance drawings of Xiaomi folding phones:
The digital blogger @DigitalChatStation once broke the news that the new Xiaomi folding screen will be released before the Xiaomi tablet. The screen size is larger, the performance is good, and it supports a high refresh rate and high pixel lens.
According to previous reports, Xiaomi and Huawei folding-screen phones will adopt a design structure similar to the internal folding main screen + external secondary screen of the Samsung Galaxy Fold. The screen refresh rate is 90Hz (engineering device), but it can be 120Hz and adopts Samsung’s latest UTG flexible glass technology. Among them, the new Xiaomi folding screen, codenamed Cetus, has a 108MP camera, and it seems to run MIUI12 based on Android 11.
