This will make Xiaomi’s foldable smartphone one of the cheapest such devices to launch in the market, almost half of Samsung’s Galaxy Fold and less than half of the Huawei Mate X. The report further says that the Xiaomi foldable phone will be priced at 999 euros in Europe and Rs 74,999 in India. The low cost of the phone has been attributed to OLED displays made by Visionox Technology. In terms of specs, the Xiaomi foldable phone is expected to come bearing the Snapdragon 855 chipset with up to 10GB RAM.
