Xiaomi is said to be bringing back a feature from its Mi 11 Ultra in the forthcoming Xiaomi 16 Pro Max: the rear secondary display. This feature, which was previously found in the Mi 11 Ultra, is anticipated to return in the new flagship model. Leaked photographs indicate that the Xiaomi 16 Pro Max will showcase a large rectangular visor on the backside, accommodating a triple-camera system and possibly the secondary screen. The phone is expected to be unveiled in China between September 24 and 26, driven by the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip.
The rear display of the Mi 11 Ultra, a 1.1-inch screen that first appeared on the Mi Band 5, acted as a selfie viewfinder as well as an always-on display for notifications. The reappearance of this feature in the Xiaomi 16 Pro Max has been suggested by multiple leaks, including images depicting a case design with a cutout that implies space for a secondary display. The precise capabilities of the new rear screen are still unclear, but its presence is backed by reliable sources and industry experts.
The Xiaomi 16 Pro Max is set to be a noteworthy launch, likely signifying the introduction of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip. With the comeback of the rear display, Xiaomi persists in innovating and distinguishing its flagship products in the cutthroat smartphone industry.
