More and more manufacturers are betting on launching their own folding phone. The first was Samsung with its successful Galaxy Fold, although Xiaomi left us speechless when it showed us the first details of the Xiaomi MI MIX Alpha. But it seems that the Asian manufacturer does not have enough.
More than anything because two concepts have been leaked where we can see the design of two new terminals with flexible panels. It is not a folding phone to use, but the screen extends to the rear.
These concepts show us the next Xiaomi smartphones.The evolution of the folding phone?
And it is that, at the end of 2019, Beijing Xiaomi Mobile Software presented a notable patent in its country of origin, China. And then, on January 10, it was included in the WIPO worldwide database. Under the name mobile phone, we can see two terminals with a flexible screen. In addition, from the different images published, we have several renders, where we can see how the design of the xiomi foldable phone that it could present throughout 2020.
As reported by Letsgodigital, the colleagues who have found these renders, we can see the phone from anywhere. In this way, we have a model with a double screen, mainly because it extends from the left side of the terminal to the rear. The only space where there is no panel is the area where it will incorporate a trile camera system.
Una simplified version of the Mi MIX Alpha, possibly to lower its price. On the other hand, the second model is not a folding phone, but a smartphone with two screens, one on the front and one on the back. It remains to be seen if it really hits the market, since most models tend to end up in prototypes to teach behind closed doors, but this new device with a flexible screen points out ways to be a real bombshell.
