Last night, Lin Bin, the president of Xiaomi, posted on his microblog: "Someone asked Xiaomi why he didn't do the lift camera. In fact, we applied for the technical patent of the lift camera in 2015, and also built an engineering machine. Although the lift camera technology is also good, it still can't meet the functional definition requirements of Xiaomi MIX3, so we chose the slide cover full screen.", At one time, it attracted many netizens to discuss. Some netizens joked that this might be a test of the reaction of rice noodles. If the reaction is strong, it may be released next year. Some netizens also raised their own questions, saying that if so, would Xiaomi have to charge Vivo patent fees.
From the three photos released by Lin Bin, it can be seen that the front lift camera module is indeed installed on this engineering machine, and the positive effect is very similar to the vivo NEX previously released by vivo. The front top frame is quite narrow, but none of the three photos has more information about the proportion of the front screen, so it is not clear whether the chin frame of this engineering machine is as narrow as the vivo NEX. In addition, we can see that this engineering machine is equipped with a battery capacity of 3400mAh. I wonder if the battery capacity of the Xiaomi MIX 3 released at that time is also 3400mAh?
As for why Lin Bin said that this design scheme could not meet the functional definition requirements of Xiaomi MIX3, he finally had to use the sliding cover full screen design scheme on Xiaomi MIX3. It is widely speculated that this may be because Xiaomi hopes to integrate the 3D structured light sensor module into the front elevating module, which is too small to fit in, so Xiaomi's R&D team gave up this design structure. Which do you prefer, the sliding full screen or the elevating full screen? Welcome to leave a message below to share your views with me~
