Apparently we will see at least 3 folding smartphones from the workshop of the South Korean giant, 4 models from Oppo, Vivo and Xiaomi and one device under the wings of Google. Finally, we learn that the expected Z Fold Lite will eventually be called Z Flip Lite.
Xiaomi leaves nothing to chance
We've already heard about the specifications of the folding smartphone from Xiaomi. But it must be said at the outset that none of this information has been verified and is purely speculation from fans. Therefore, let's take everything with a grain of salt.
The Xiaomi folding smartphone should be powered by the latest processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5Gwhich will offer enough power. In terms of cameras, we can expect the main one 108 MPx sensor and should also not be missing Android 11 with superstructure MIUI 12.
these guesses about a folding smartphone we are also confirmed by the clue discovered in the MIUI 12 code. The attribute is mentioned in it isFoldAbleDive, which could mean the arrival of a folding smartphone also produced by Xiaomi.
