After a leak earlier this month, Xiaomi has
officially teased its foldable smartphone in a video. Xiaomi co-founder and
President Lin Bin said that the phone has been developed after several
technical problems inflexible folding screen technology, four-wheel drive folding shaft technology,
flexible cover technology, and adapting MIUI to the foldable screen.
As we had seen earlier, the large screen folds on
two sides to turn into a compact device. The company says that this will be the
world’s first foldable phone with dual-side foldable technology.
Xiaomi also says that if people are interested in
this, it will consider mass production
of the device in the future. It also asks people for a name for the phone.
Xiaomi has started Mi Explorer programme to take 20 Mi Fans to attend the
Mobile World Congress from 23th to 26th February, so there are chances for the
company to showcase this device there.
