Xiaomi’s Latest Patent Shows a Phone With Horizontal Sliding Design

The world of smartphones is turning to a new technological era, one that requires the use of folding displays or at least with mechanisms for reducing the size when the device is not used at full capacity. In this sense, Xiaomi is gearing up to the fullest.

The patented phone, with two cameras on the front and back, looks really interesting and looks more useful than the foldable models. It is not clear whether the company that will prepare a real foldable phone in the new year will make this model a reality.

The second patent filed by Xiaomi refers to a vertically folding smartphone, so a shell design in the style of the new Moto Razr. The photographic sector would be integrated previously with a pop-up mechanism.
