Regarding its design, the phone has sharp and rounded edges, along with a slightly elevated camera section on the back. The right side of the upcoming Lava smartphone looks clean, implying that the power and volume buttons may be on the left side. However, the name for this new device has not yet been revealed. It is predicted to be similar to the Xiaomi 17 Pro models, which come with secondary M10 displays on the back, featuring a peak brightness of 3,500 nits. Interestingly, the brand has previously launched two smartphones with dual displays in the last few years. The Lava Agni 3, released in October 2024, includes a 1.74-inch AMOLED touchscreen on its rear panel. At the same time, the Lava Blaze Duo, which came out in December 2024, also features a 1.58-inch AMOLED screen (228x460 pixels) on the back, with a pixel density of 336ppi.
According to the company, the secondary display on both of these smartphones can be utilized for taking selfies with the rear cameras, managing music playback, and adjusting settings for timers or alarms.
