Patent for something that was already done more than a decade ago. Is releasing a "new" phone every week also innovative for Xiaomi?...

    Anonymous, 23 May 2020nokia used this desig....... wait.... nokia is chinese nowThe new Nokia (phone) is not a Chinese or Japanese brand. It is owned by a Finnish company named HMD Global. (quora: https://www.quora.com/Is-the-new-Nokia-Japanese-company-or-Chinese )

    HMD Global Oy, branded as HMD, is a Finnish mobile phone company (wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMD_Global )

    HMD is staffed by former Nokia people (and current Nokia employees on the board of directors) and has offices very close to Nokia HQ (reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nokia/comments/6niivf/so_is_it_hmd_nokia_or_foxconn/ )

    Maybe, I don't know, actually do some research and get your facts straight before spewing your obvious Western-brainwashed, anti-Chinese BS?

        car, 23 May 2020Yup, there don't seem to be many of us to remember :DThere were 2 models even not just one

          Oppo N3 style is way more durable and better looking. This looks more like radar.

                                Great keep crying about Chinese OEMS about stealing while they drive in relentless innovation.

                                Just because you close you close your eyes doesn't mean everything cease to exist :)

                                  This is exciting. I would like to see a proper foldable smartphone due to compact size and the mechanical feeling of opening and closing.
