Samsung Galaxy Z Flip rival: Xiaomi foldable smartphone shown on patent images

At the end of March, Xiaomi introduced its first folding smartphone, Mi Mix Fold. However, the manufacturer

is not going to stop there and is preparing new models. Images of one of them were found in a patent application at WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization).

What showed

The patent images show a foldable smartphone similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip and Moto Razr 5G. That is, it is a “clamshell” that folds in half, turning into a small “powder compact”.

Among the features of the gadget is a horizontal moduleon the back panel, which houses two large camera sensors and, most likely, an additional display with a small diagonal that can display the time, date, incoming calls and messages.

You can also consider a dual selfie camera(possibly one sensor and a flash), a volume rocker and a power button on the right, a USB Type-C port and a SIM card slot at the bottom. There is no 3.5mm audio jack. The phone itself looks quite thin, so you shouldn't count on a capacious battery.

Since this is a design patent, there is currently no information about the characteristics. And in general, it is unknown whether Xiaomi will bring this idea to life.
