Taking a close look on World’s first double foldable Smartphone

The video is edited so it cuts out from front view to back at the moment of the fold so the actual folding action is not seen from the front. But from the back the two folded like wings go dark after being folded.

When the video cuts back to the front there’s a slight spinning of the screen, as the software appears to grapple momentarily with the new form factor, before it stabilizes in portrait orientation.

The tablet form of the device resembles the bezel-less ‘infinity display’ design of a handset like the 2018 Samsung Galaxy S8. Albeit more squat looking than the tall 18.5:9 aspect ratio of the S8.

What is the price of World’s first double foldable Smartphone and when it will hit the market?

Xiaomi’s tweet does not include any details about how and when near a market launch of the device might be or what will be the price etc. But TechNews makers have reached out to the company with questions about the prototype and any launch plans.

Hoping we might soon catch the sites of World’s first double foldable Smartphone in the market.
