Network sources say that the Chinese company Xiaomi intends to launch the release of smartphones that have increased resistance to external influences and adverse conditions.
It's about protecting in three ways. First, it is the ability to withstand impacts and falls while maintaining efficiency. Secondly, it is said about the protection from moisture, which will allow without fear to use the device in rainy weather, and also help to avoid damage if the device accidentally hits the water. Finally, thirdly, the dust-permeability.
Any technical details are, unfortunately, not disclosed yet. Apparently, Xiaomi will ensure the compliance of several of its smartphones and tablets to the IP67 or IP68 standard.
According to the available information, the company will present devices with triple protection from external influences in the first half of next year. Xiaomi itself does not comment on network sources.
It is estimated that in the third quarter of this year, smartphone shipments totaled 373.1 million units globally. Xiaomi sold 27.6 million devices, accounting for 7.4% of the world market. In the list of leading manufacturers of smart mobile phones, the company is in fifth place.
