Patent reveals possible tri-fold phone from Xiaomi

18 September 2024
It's the same style as the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate and folds into a Z shape. 

Sort by:

Actually i see a 3 separate phones folding on two hinges which makes this device double folding one not atripple folding one.
Maybe a GSM Arena team sees there one more phone or screen we dont see.
Or they going to call a 4 separate screen making a trifold phone calling a fourfold or 4fold???

      hmm, 18 Sep 2024hi, it's dual fold - not tri-fold, is all of guys wri... moreDon't expect much of GSMArena. Yes, it's a dual-fold device.

        Anonymous, 18 Sep 2024This design is clever because it requires a single display.That scratches at level 0 with destroying marks at level 1.

          GAMIR3DH, 18 Sep 2024Same as a glass phone. It gets scratched too.Yeah but glass screens not as easily with your fingernail where slave phones don't have that weakness.

              hi,
              it's dual fold - not tri-fold, is all of guys writing about this using "tri.." description can't really see..?

                Just me, 18 Sep 2024The downside of it is that you have the plastic, easy to sc... moreSame as a glass phone. It gets scratched too.

                  vrvly, 18 Sep 2024Great folding, great cameras, west gonna be left behind...If the majority doesn't used foldable phones. Why do you think the west is left behind? Knowing that foldables aren't durable.

                        how can they file a patent when the design is already used? or this is Chinese way to sue someone makes profit first?

                          No surprise. Once Huawei does something Xiaomi is almost guaranteed to follow.

                          Now the tri-fold

                          They almost always follow Huawei's every move closely
