For unknown reasons, OPPO and vivo have suspended the development of small vertical folding screens this year. However, Xiaomi and Honor have commercialized their first vertical folding screen phones this year. On August 2, industry insider "Smart Chip Guide" gave a simple data comparison of the sales of Xiaomi MIX Flip and Honor Magic V Flip.

According to him, Honor Magic V Flip is already a very popular product among vertical folding screen phones, but what he didn't expect is that Xiaomi MIX Flip's sales are even stronger. As far as the current situation is concerned, Xiaomi MIX Flip's sales in one week have exceeded half of Honor Magic V Flip's sales in six weeks. In other words, Xiaomi MIX Flip's overall sales in just one week of commercial use have exceeded Honor Magic V Flip's sales after three weeks of commercial use. It's just that Honor Magic V Flip has been commercially available for five weeks earlier than Xiaomi MIX Flip, otherwise it would be hard to tell which of the two vertical folding screen phones is more popular in the market. From this simple comparison, Xiaomi MIX Flip's sales are really good, and it has been recognized by both the market and consumers.

In reality, Xiaomi MIX Flip can gain market recognition mainly due to product strength. When this model was not yet officially commercialized, Lei Jun said that he would completely bid farewell to the "beautiful little waste" and recalibrate the vertical small folding screen. In fact, this is indeed the case. Xiaomi MIX Flip is the first vertical folding screen mobile phone in China built on Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen 3 processor. Unlike similar products of friendly companies, which either use outdated processors or directly use mid-range processors, their performance is simply not comparable to the flagships of the same period. In addition, the experience of Xiaomi MIX Flip is also very good. Without opening the external screen, more than 90% of the operations can be completed, including daily calls, message replies, etc. What's more important is that Lei Jun also brought Leica imaging to this model, which is icing on the cake.

From the reviews of real users and the media, we can see that Xiaomi MIX Flip is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has the same experience as the flagship. Its external screen can be used normally just like an iPhone 4. So it is reasonable that it is selling well. However, seeing that both models are popular in the market, I wonder if vivo and OPPO regret suspending their similar products, and whether they will bring back the vertical folding screen next year.
