Exclusive details about Xiaomi’s new flagship device codenamed Project Zhuque have emerged. According to the leak, Zhuque aims to offer an unprecedented smartphone experience by getting rid of physical buttons. The Chinese company wants to create a full-screen experience.
Xiaomi targets 2025 for buttonless phone
Xiaomi is rumored to be exploring gesture controls, pressure-sensitive edges and even voice commands to control the device without physical keys. This would allow for thin bezels and a full-size screen design.
It was stated that Xiaomi is also exploring under-screen cameras optimized for full-screen design. Project Zhuque will be powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 4 chipset coded SM8775. Other specifications such as display, battery and cameras are unknown, but it is possible to say that it will appeal to the high-end market.
Rumors are starting to grow as the 6th generation Apple iPad mini model is out of stock. Is a new iPad mini on the way?
We know that there have been similar initiatives before. Although past projects such as Meizu Zero failed, it is possible to say that devices without a physical button will attract attention. Of course, Project Zhuque is still in development, so plans may change.
On the other hand, it turns out that Xiaomi has joined rivals like Huawei in researching new foldable displays. Accordingly, the company is reportedly working on three foldable smartphones. It is said to launch both phones in the first half of 2025.
This new device shows that Xiaomi aims to strengthen its position in the foldable phone market and maintain its claim to be a pioneer in technological innovation.
