Xiaomi has filed a patent for a sliding camera phone. The patent, which was leaked earlier this month, shows three cameras are arranged at the back of the phone with a thin vertical strip. Two of them are the rear camera, and one is front faced, selfie shooter. ..

Xiaomi’s Sliding Camera Phone

The patent suggests that there will be two camera modules in the back and one camera that left open because the rear camera modules slide over the edge of the phone. So at that state you will see a camera peeking from the top-back of the phone.

This means that the Mi Mix will have a 5.99-inch screen with a ratio of 95%.

The Xiaomi Redmi 3s has been announced with a new camera resolution of 12MP. This is an increase of 2MP from the original camera resolution of 8MP. The camera on the Xiaomi Redmi 3s is said to be better than the one on the Mi 4 and other flagships.

Sliding camera phones are not new to the market. Smartphone manufacturers like Samsung and Oppo have already used sliding camera in their smartphones to improve the screen to body ratio. However, the concept was a bit different, in those phones when you need to take a selfie the rear camera flips to the front-side. If you want to have a look at the filed patent so, visit this link. ..
