Infinix unveils Zero Mini tri-fold concept
Infinix showcased a new concept device in its Zero series. The Zero Mini tri-fold brings an interesting take on the tri-fold form factor with a flip-style outward folding design that utilizes dual hinges. The dual hinge design allows the display to fold and unfold vertically and conform to three sizes.
The concept device is built to serve multiple purposes – it’s a full-fledged smartphone that can also fold down to a compact camera that you attach to your bag, bicycle or as a car dash cam.
Infinix also envisions the Zero Mini tri-fold as a hands-free gym accessory that can help you track workouts, follow guided exercise routines or navigate hiking routes. The Zero Mini tri-fold features dual rear-mounted cameras and is built for single-handed use.
Infinix is exploring more use cases for the Zero Mini tri-fold as a multipurpose device built for consumers who want to replace several gadgets with an adaptable form factor. Infinix did not share any additional specs or launch plans for the Zero Mini tri-fold, but we're hoping to see the prototype live at MWC Barcelona.

You understood the phones that fold in half, but you didn't understand the triple folding model :) Why would a phone that is the size of your hand fold?

i know that, im just wondering if they can further improve on these ideas or make something close to it a real product. Don't really expect that but i hope they do make that happen.

Why must bi-folding devices be called tri-folds? 2 hinges equals 2 folds. This device (and Huawei's) is tri-segmented. That said, looks like an interesting piece of tech!
