According to new tips, Xiaomi and Vivo are working on wide-screen smartphones.
The Huawei Pura X View is an immediate success in China, with its first-day unit sales reaching around 180,000. The phone triggered a trend in the industry.
According to reports, several major Chinese smartphone brands are now working on their own versions of the phone.
Now, Xiaomi is said to be one of the brands planning to join the trend. The Chinese giant is reportedly working on a model with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a 16:10 or 16:9 display aspect ratio.
Vivo is also rumored to be developing its wide-display model with a 6.5″ screen. The phone is expected to launch in 2027.
As previously reported, around five brands are on the same track. For instance, Oppo is one of them, with reports claiming that there is an upcoming Reno wide-screen phone with a MediaTek Dimensity 9600M chip, a 6.35″ display, dual 200MP rear cameras, and an 8000mAh battery.
We also heard that OnePlus will release a wide-screen phone instead of the compact OnePlus 16T model. Moreover, two models in the Huawei Pura 100 series are reportedly adopting a wide-screen design. Honor and Redmi are also rumored to be preparing a wide-display phone.
