Blogger @ Smart Pikachu recently broke the news that Meizu’s foldable screen phone has been launched, but the progress cannot keep up with Meizu 21 Pro and may be released later.
It is noticed that Meizu has been rumored to launch folding screen phones many times before. In March this year, Huang Zhipan, executive vice president of Xingji Meizu Group and CEO of Meizu brand, revealed that Meizu will launch folding screen products by the end of the year. However, the official has not yet disclosed more information about Meizu’s folding screen products.
Blogger @digitalchat.com published an article in May this year saying that Meizu’s folding screen will not be mass-produced in the short term because “software adaptation is difficult and hardware costs are high.” In response, Huang Zhipan said: “We have higher requirements for folding screen phones. The previously defined products are not competitive enough, so we will redefine them. The folding screen product line will continue.”
At present, Meizu has applied for a number of folding screen phone patents. In July this year, Meizu’s patent for “pop-up mechanism and folding terminal” was disclosed, which is said to reduce the difficulty of unfolding folding terminals and improve ease of use.
The patented elastic support part has elasticity in the unfolding direction of the folding terminal. The squeeze button cooperates with the elastic support part to adjust the distance between the elastic support part and the first buckle part in the buckled state, thereby achieving magnetic detection. Control of the magnetic attraction of the suction group. The patented pop-up mechanism realizes the adjustment of the buckling force when the folding terminal is unfolded, reducing the difficulty of unfolding the folding terminal and greatly improving the convenience of use of the folding terminal. Whether it will be used on mass-produced models is still unknown.
