Leak Reveals That A 108MP Foldable Xiaomi Smartphone Is On The Way

There are rumours that Xiaomi is working on a foldable smartphone that will bring high-end specifications. While the company has not confirmed the news, the source seems credible.

 

The leak of a Xiaomi foldable came from a Senior Member of XDA Developers, Kacskrz. The evidence was discovered in the company’s recent MIUI 12 code. They claim that the device is codenamed ‘cetus’.

 

“We’ve examined code within MIUI 12’s latest China Closed Beta for the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, and found some more clues for the device and some of its specifications. Cetus is clearly a foldable, as the device returns a true value for the method called isFlodAbleDevice (likely a typographical error, intending to mean isFoldAbleDevice). There is a bunch of other code, related to monitoring the display fold and identifying changes to the folding state, which gives us confidence towards the claim,” the article reads.

Besides running on an Android 11 OS, Cetus will likely run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor in the 800-series range. Additionally, the leak claims that the Xiaomi foldable device will feature a 108MP main camera among other things.

 

There have been several rumours about Xiaomi making a foldable device in the past. However, with the current popularity of foldable smartphones, Cetus may be the first from the company to make it into the market.

 

Xiaomi has gradually taken its place at the top of the bestselling smartphones in the world. At the end of Q3 2020, it overtook Apple to become the third highest smartphone. Launching a foldable device may be a risky bet but curiosity may help it sell it.
