Now there are new revelations that Xiaomi is studying a new folding screen, according to media reports, Xiaomi is developing a new folding screen machine with a vertical folding design.

From the information released by CNIPA (China National Intellectual Property Association), it is known that Xiaomi's folding screen patent (patent number 2020301357510) uses a clamshell design, which is similar to the design of Huawei P50 Pocket and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3, and it can also be seen that its back adopts a dual camera design and a small second screen. At the bottom there is a SIM card slot, a USB-C port and speaker/microphone, while the power key and volume control keys are on the right side of the Xiaomi folding screen.
