Xiaomi has shown the full exterior design of its upcoming Xiaomi 18 Fold and introduced it as a new “mid-fold” form factor. The phone has a 5.38-inch outer display and a 7.58-inch inner display, with a horizontal rear camera module.

The design is intended to sit between traditional large foldables and smaller flip-style devices.
