Since entering 2020, major mobile phone manufacturers have frequently released new phones, and the size of mobile phones has become larger and larger, basically above 6 inches. The most obvious example is Xiaomi. Almost all new phones released in 2020 are not smaller than 6 inches. But just recently, Lu Weibing suddenly posted a message suggesting that a small-sized mini phone will be launched, which aroused the attention of many users.

According to Lu Weibing: "Should Redmi launch a mini, battery capacity/life will be sacrificed a lot...". As soon as this news came out, many netizens and rice fans also actively welcomed it, hoping that Redmi could launch a small-sized mobile phone like the iPhone 12 mini. Of course, the advantages of small-sized mobile phones are also very obvious, including better grip and better portability. But there are also disadvantages. As Lu Weibing said, smaller mobile phones mean less space to accommodate batteries, and battery life will naturally be affected.

To give the most obvious example, the previously launched iPhone SE 2020 and Pixel 4a both had to reduce the battery capacity while reducing the size of the body, so they are not as good in terms of battery life. Especially excellent. However, currently, many mobile phone manufacturers have different solutions to the problem of low battery life of small-sized mobile phones. The most mainstream method is undoubtedly to further reduce the power consumption of mobile phones through software optimization to achieve the effect of improving battery life.

So judging from the current situation, Lu Weibing posted a message at this time stating that he would launch a small-size mini model. He was probably just observing the attitudes and opinions of netizens and users to determine the next step. But it is not ruled out that Redmi is now in the research and development stage of mini mobile phones. I believe that in the future, the official will inevitably make further revelations, which is still worth looking forward to.

So, what do you think about Redmi’s plan to build a mini phone?
