Xiaomi might be working on a smartphone with a rear display, a feature it hasn’t used since the Mi 11 Ultra. Recent leaks and software code found in the latest HyperOS build point to a device codenamed “Pandora” with the model number “Q200”.
A string of code specifically mention support for a secondary screen.
Launched back in 2021, the Mi 11 Ultra featured a small screen next to the rear camera that allowed users to check notifications or use it as a viewfinder for selfies from the back.
While the idea didn’t gain much traction at the time, it now seems Xiaomi may be revisiting the concept. Especially now that a brand like Nothing has introduced its so-called Glyph Matrix, which functions somewhat like a secondary screen, it makes sense for Xiaomi to do some of its own tricks.
According to earlier reports, the Q200 is expected to be a high-end variant in the upcoming Xiaomi 16 series, possibly positioned above the Xiaomi 16 Ultra. The rest of the lineup, including the Xiaomi 16 and 16 Pro, is rumored to focus on more compact designs.
Leaks suggest a possible launch in September, and as usual, the Q200 may debut in China first, with a global release possibly coming later (likely in 2026). Not much else is known about the device’s specs, and Xiaomi has yet to make anything official, so take this news with a grain of salt.
