Xiaomi is preparing a smartphone in a retractable rotary camera, like the Samsung Galaxy A80

On November 30, 2020, Xiaomi Mobile Software filed a patent for a smartphone design with a retractable PTZ camera with the National Intellectual Property Administration of China (CNIPA). The documentation was published today, May 14, 2021. It contains a brief description and images of the smartphone.

In the usual state, this is a smartphone without cutouts and holes in the screen, while it does not have a sub-screen front camera. Xiaomi opted for a rotating pop-up camera for this model. This design should be used for the first time in Xiaomi smartphones.

A triple camera is visible at the back, while the middle lens is very large, presumably underneath is a 108MP image sensor. When the user wants to take a selfie, the camera pops out and rotates. A similar system was implemented in the Samsung Galaxy A80, which was released in 2019. You can find our smartphone review here.

There are no buttons or connectors on the top of the device. At the bottom you can see the SIM card slot, USB-C connector and speaker holes. On the left is the volume rocker, and on the right are two buttons. Presumably, the top button is responsible for turning on / off the smartphone, and the bottom one is for the camera.
