Xiaomi's double-folding phone looks better than ever in new video

Xiaomi's folding phone makes an appearance again. With noodles.

Remember Xiaomi's concept of a phone that folds in two places? The company publicly announced it's working on it, and even published a few videos, but the phone is definitely still in development.

Well, a new video of the device has appeared on Chinese social media Weibo, and though it doesn't really show us anything new, the phone looks really nice and its UI conforms to the folded state quite fast.

In the video, we see someone scrolling through some content, then flipping the phone to its horizontal state, folding it over and placing it down on a cup of instant noodles.

Again, out of all of the foldable phones I've seen, this one makes the most sense in terms of size: When folded, it's not much bigger than a regular phone; when fully unfolded, it's actually a decent-sized tablet.

The new video doesn't answer any of our questions about accidental touches and selfie camera, but hey -- until these foldable phones become commonplace, they'll still feel like they came from the future, and we're always up for seeing more of them.
