With more and more different smartphones coming to market every day, a patent created by Xiaomi also attracts attention. Discovered on website 91Mobile PhonesThe prototype of the Chinese company’s new mobile phone promises that it can be divided into two parts, similar to a stick, from which the user can easily pick up the two parts of the device.

The rather eccentric patent was registered by CNIPA, the Chinese agency responsible for the management of intellectual property. While the images are a bit confusing, they do reveal a device in a detachable format split in two, but it’s clear that the prototype is a smartphone due to the camera modules, side buttons, and edges of the screen.

It’s difficult to determine exactly how the device works from conceptual images alone, but a detachable section between the two parts shows small spherical structures that may be some type of sensor or connection. In this way, it will be possible to magnetically insert the device so that it works.

New smartphone formats

What isn’t clear is whether users can completely separate both devices. The images show that the smartphone was folded but never fully detached. The concepts also reveal different usage positions, such as completely reversing the top of the product.

The arrival of innovative formats in the smartphone world looks like the next big step in the industry. After manufacturers increasingly get smaller and more reliable sensors and more powerful chips for cameras, relying on user experience in different formats seems the most reasonable way to go.

It is worth remembering that Huawei recently launched its first smartphone with three screens, and speculation that Samsung will announce a foldable mobile phone has become stronger in recent weeks.
