Xiaomi’s version of the wider Galaxy Z Fold 8 shows up in hands-on leak ahead of launch

The Xiaomi 18 Fold is set to debut next month, generating buzz ahead of its official launch. In a hands-on leak, a sneak peek at the wider form factor reminiscent of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 has emerged. During a recent event in China, Xiaomi confirmed the release date of the Xiaomi 18 Fold, which will arrive in September, powered by the innovative XRING 03 chipset, the successor to last year's XRING 01.

While the chip may not rival Apple's A19 Pro, it represents a significant leap forward from its predecessor. The standout feature is undoubtedly the Xiaomi 18 Fold itself, Xiaomi's latest wide-screen foldable device. Images leaked on Weibo offer a closer look at the new gadget, which mirrors the Galaxy Z Fold 8 in shape, boasting a shorter and wider design that opens up to a notably wider inner display compared to other foldables, including Xiaomi's previous models.

Interestingly, this new device appears eerily similar to the Huawei Pura X View, even adopting the same "Dark Cherry" red color that seems to be a direct copy from rumors surrounding the upcoming iPhone 18 series.
