Xiaomi Hints On The Launch Of Foldable Phone

Xiaomi launched its Mi 11 flagship smartphone only a few weeks ago. However, it looks like there is another ambitious launch in line for the company with its foldable phone. Xiaomi’s CEO, Lei Jun, has confirmed plans for a far ambitious project. This is not the first time we are hearing about it. There are rumors surfacing online for the same for quite some time.

Jun hints that the company is gearing up to launch a new Xiaomi Mi MIX series smartphone. This will happen after a gap of about two years. The phone will reportedly be the most expensive phone from the Chinese company to date. It will be interesting to see what it offers over and above the Mi 11 Pro.

However, there’s a possibility that Xiaomi wants to see users’ reactions before jumping into the foldable smartphone project. In a post on Weibo, Jun asked users if they would be willing to buy a smartphone worth 10,000 yuan. Whereas there is no guarantee about the phone, the expectation is that it is indeed the Mi MIX series smartphone.

There is little known about the device as of now. However, reports suggest the company could be opting for a foldable design that can be opened and closed like a book. This device can very well end up being the first foldable smartphone from Xiaomi.

Moreover, Jun’s post on Weibo comes days after a new foldable device was in the hands of a user inside a subway in China. The device looks quite similar to the one that showcased by Xiaomi’s VP a few years ago. However, this one appears to bring with itself a bigger display than the one we had seen before. It is looking like it comes with a protective casing and can be an engineering prototype of the final device.
