Mi MIX Alpha 2 patent leaked using Pop-up camera and Dual-sided display

Xiaomi released the MIX Alpha mobile phone, which is a particularly futuristic smartphone. Its surround display covers the front and back of the entire device, and there are three cameras on the back. Although this wrap-around smartphone has not been officially launched, Xiaomi seems to be brewing follow-up products.

Did you mean: Mi MIX Alpha 2 patent exposure: the front and back are all screens, using the pop-up camera

According to LetsgoDigital reports, in June this year, Xiaomi applied for a design patent in the Hague Bulletin under WIPO (World Intellectual Property Office). The document was published on December 18, 2020, and showed a high-end Xiaomi smartphone composed entirely of the display. In addition to about 16 patent sketches, the file also includes 4 color renderings.

This patented mobile phone looks very similar to Mi MIX Alpha, but this time the entire back is also equipped with a display surface and no longer has a mullion. There is a vertical gap on the back, which is the joint of the screen.

This Xiaomi phone uses a large pop-up camera with three cameras and a flash. Because there are screens on the front and back of the phone, this pop-up camera can be used for regular photographs and videos, as well as self-portraits.

Next to the pop-up camera is a switch button and a microphone. There is a speaker, a microphone, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone port at the bottom.

There were rumors in March this year that Xiaomi is developing a follow-up product to Mix Alpha. This device is codenamed “Draco” and will be equipped with Snapdragon 865. Of course, like a patent, whether Xiaomi will launch a real product is still unknown.
