Xiaomi’s new patent(design) a smartphone, Smart Speaker hybrid with rollable screen! Device uses cylindrical body with pull-out screen, a bottom-firing speaker and triple near camera array.
The design imagines a cylindrical device at its core reminiscent of a smart speaker. It’s complete with a single button mounted up top and a camera array at the rear. There’s no info on the sensors and lenses used here, but images suggest at least three snappers are in use. As per android authority. https://www.androidauthority.com/xiaomi-rollable-smartphone-speaker-1225601/
Xiaomi also packs a roll-out display that unfurls from the cylinder when needed. It’s an elaborate way to include a screen, but it does mean the hybrid device can store and protect its display when not in use. The actual speaker is located at the bottom of the body, giving it a pepper shaker aesthetic. Xiaomi doesn’t reveal any particular specs for the speaker, so there’s no telling how much of a kick it could pack.
