                          With that pricing sure Galaxy Fold will not sell. The Xiaomi with cheaper price and Huawei with futuristic design are the innovations we all have been waiting for.

                            The only question is now how would Xiaomi's foldable phone will look like? Don't suggest me the leaked renders, I will not believing it a single thing.

                              xXENDER FREAKXx, 16 Mar 2019Oh really? Well that's good to knowThat's the thing, people actually do not know that miui has one of the most versatile theme engine for phones... being a theme developer myself, I even have options for adding app drawers in them( I don't like doing that, but my friends do) in China, the iOS based themes are the ones which sell the most
                              (90 percentage of themes are free, 10 percentage are paid, ranging from 15 cents to 2 dollars at maximum)
                              They allow you to change everything ranging from phones keypad to messaging icons. You can also change the notification shade and color you want the icons to be, after you touch them. Try the themes app ones, trust me it's awesome

                                Lei Jun, the founder of Mi, said this prototype foldable phone cannot be released because this design leaves no room for battery. And this prototype isn't Mi origin but from foldable OLED manufacturer

                                    Walter C. Dornez, 16 Mar 2019Ah, that sucks. What phone do you use now?I have been using my XPERIA XZ as my daily driver for 2+ years now, quite satisfied with it day to day really. Sure, I do have newer Sony smartphones that I can use for my next daily driver, but they're not worth the upgrade. And that's the reason why I'm going to get the XPERIA XZ3 once it drops to a reasonable price

                                      xXENDER FREAKXx, 16 Mar 2019Ever heard of third-party launchers such as Nova Launcher, ... morewith miui tbh, even third party launchers are unnecessary, we can go to themes store and download nexus or pixel theme and bam, it looks like a stock phone (sans app drawer ofcourse)

                                        This is a great starting price from xiaomi for a first generation foldable smartphone release.
                                        If they can put out a 75% decent piece of hardware and software combination and get it into the most important regions of the world before Q3, they will have leapfrogged to the front of the pack of companies for 2019 foldable phones. Fingers Crossed everyone!
