Xiaomi has been working on its foldable smartphone for quite some time and finally launched its Mi MIX Fold device a couple of months ago. Now, the company is working on its successor and a new report related to the smartphone, coming via Digital Chat Station on Weibo reveals that the company has already started testing the upcoming phone which carries model number J18s.
Further, the report adds that both the internal as well as external display on the device will have support for a high refresh rate, either 90Hz or 120Hz. The phone has an internal model number of J18s and it is being said that it will be called Mi MIX Fold.
Earlier, there were reports claiming that the foldable smartphone from Xiaomi has codename “ARGO” and features an under-display camera. Later, it was revealed that “ARGO” is the same device that has internal model number “J18s.”
This indicates that the upcoming foldable smartphone from the company will come with an under-display camera. As for the camera configuration, it is said that the phone will have a 108-megapixel primary sensor, along with a 3X Liquid lens, and an ultra-wide sensor.
We expect to know more details about the upcoming foldable smartphone in the coming days or weeks, ahead of the official launch. Currently, the launch date of this new smartphone is not yet known.
Since the launch date is not yet confirmed, it’s highly unlikely that the device will be available for purchase anything before mid-to-late August. There’s a possibility that it could go on sale by the end of this year.
While Xiaomi isn’t ready to launch its new foldable smartphone anytime soon, the South Korean giant, Samsung, is gearing up to launch its next-generation foldable phone as Galaxy Z Fold 3 in the coming weeks.
