Already appeared on the Internet that the Chinese company Xiaomi is designing a smartphone with a retractable front camera. New data on this subject have now been released.
According to XDA Developers, Xiaomi is testing at least two devices with a periscope camera. These devices appear under the code names "Raphael" (Raphael) and "da Vinci" (Davinci).
Unfortunately, there is little information about the technical characteristics of smartphones. It is said that the novelties will refer to the flagship devices. This is indicated by the use of a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor in both devices, which contains eight Kryo 485 cores with a clock speed of up to 2,84 GHz, an Adreno 640 graphics accelerator and an AI Engine.
In addition, it is known that the front camera will extend and hide automatically when you activate / deactivate the selfie shooting mode.
It is possible that one of the planned smartphones will debut on the commercial market under the Redmi brand, although there is no exact information on this at the moment.
Obviously, the devices will receive a screen with a resolution of at least Full HD +. By the way, it is claimed that both new items will be endowed with a fingerprint scanner integrated directly into the display area.
