The Xiaomi 18 Fold is an iPhone Duo lookalike with one huge advantage

The Xiaomi 18 Fold, unveiled just days before Apple's iPhone Duo event, is a short and wide foldable device that closely resembles the iPhone Duo. Xiaomi's latest offering adopts the rounded edges and D-shape design of the iPhone Duo, eschewing the boxy corners found on devices like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. Although the Xiaomi 18 Fold may not be available outside of China, its specifications reveal a competitive feature set.

Boasting a 7.58-inch main display and a 5.38-inch cover display, the phone houses a powerful XRING O3 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and storage options ranging from 256GB to 1TB. The device is powered by a substantial 6,000mAh battery and features a triple-camera setup, including a 200MP main camera and a Leica-collaborated lens.

While the Xiaomi 18 Fold's price of approximately $1,600 USD is comparable to the iPhone Duo, its unique combination of design and camera capabilities could make it a formidable competitor in the foldable smartphone market.
