However, in recent years, some companies have decided to differentiate themselves from their competitors by producing smartphones with innovative designs; We all know about smartphones with foldable screens. Although these devices are still not perfect, they have managed to attract the attention of millions of users thanks to their versatile design and unique user experience.
Foldable screen phones have gained a lot of popularity around the world, but there is no end to imagination in technology. A famous technology company recently patented a rather strange phone design. Although it is still at the concept stage, this phone draws attention with its ability to be divided into two. So how will it work?
TOP AND BOTTOM CAN BE DETACHED
Xiaomi company has applied for a patent for a detachable smartphone with the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA). This innovative device can be divided into an upper part and a lower part. Each of the parts can work independently.
At first glance, Xiaomi’s splittable smartphone looks like a traditional clamshell foldable phone; However, both parts can be separated from each other. There is a magnetic pin system that will be the connection point between the two sections.
IT CAN ALSO BE RETURNED
The phone not only allows its parts to be separated, but also offers the option of rotating the top to use the front and main cameras together. In this way, users will be able to take photos or videos while viewing the screen at the bottom of the device.
Another advantage of this device is that users will be able to use it to communicate “like a walkie-talkie,” as every part of the detachable phone is functional. This means that a person can split part of their mobile phone and give part of it to a friend or family member, allowing direct calls between two people.
This mobile phone is just a patent for now, there is no phone and therefore its release date is unknown. It is even possible that Xiaomi will cancel the project if certain technical feasibility or market demand standards are not met. The idea of a device that can be divided into two parts will come true one day, if not now.
