Xiaomi is preparing an affordable smartphone with a flexible display

It seems that Xiaomi has already started working on a folding, clamshell smartphone. According to information on the website gizmochina.com, a well-known tipster on the social network Weibo reported this.

The folding smartphone from Xiaomi should have a favorable price and the specifications of the flagship

Based on leaked information, this smartphone should come on the market with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset and a FullHD + display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The camera resolution should be 50 megapixels. One of the disadvantages of folding smartphones is their price. The last folding device from Xiaomi was launched on the market with a price tag well exceeding the limit of 1000 euros. However, this smartphone should become more accessible after the presentation, which should be its biggest advantage.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know much about this smartphone. Also, the date of its performance and its final form are not known, so we recommend looking at the published information from above.

If this smartphone really hit the market, it would face relatively strong competition. The first competitor would be the Galaxy Z Flip3. It offers the user 8GB of RAM, a Snapdragon 888 chipset and also a display with a high refresh rate (120 Hz). The second competitor is the Huawei P50 Pocket, which offers the same processor (Snapdragon 888), 8/12 GB RAM and 4000 mAh battery. The third competitor is the Motorola razr 5G. However, this smartphone can only compete with its design, as it is an older device with a less powerful chipset.
