Smartphones with dual screens are nothing new for us, but since the design is rare, therefore they are only seen in handful of gadgets from a few brands. However, it may change this year as report suggests that smartphones with dual screen will launch in the current year.
The report comes from famous tipster Digital Chat Station, who claims that at least two smartphones will launch this year which will have a secondary screen on the backside. He also added that it is very early to talk about its practicality or functions, but he believes that it is going to be a small screen having 60Hz refresh rate.
Recently, Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra was seen in a leak. The image revealed that on its backside, it had a small secondary screen next to main camera. We believe that the tipster could be indicating towards the Mi 11 Ultra as well, and it may introduce later this year.
Similar to the Galaxy Z Flip or the foldable Motorola Razr, we have seen other brands release phones with smaller secondary screens. Typically, these secondary screens are used to display time/date, notifications, alerts, etc., and that is also what we expect to see on these mysterious upcoming phones.
Keep in mind that instead of one, the tipster mentions two smartphones with secondary screens, which means that we may actually see several brands pull this off. Over the coming months, more details on these devices are expected to surface.
