Fiberglass composite materials have become the standard for the back covers of many mobile phones and tablets! Including Xiaomi 15 Ultra?
On February 27, Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra, the flagship of top imaging technology, was officially released, helping Xiaomi to impact the 6K+ high-end market.
In terms of appearance design, Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra continues the Ultra series' concept of "professional equipment lightweight" and launches four colors: classic black and silver, cypress green, black and white.
Among them, the classic black and silver and cypress green models inherit Leica's classic double color scheme, and the back cover is a splicing design of aviation-grade glass fiber composite material and durable and wear-resistant litchi leather material, showing an elegant and exquisite texture;
The black and white versions have a silky matte touch and provide excellent anti-fingerprint ability. The back panel is made of fiberglass composite material, which is light and tough.
The white version uses a double rubbing process to add a delicate cloud silk texture to the pure white body, and the elegant texture design adds a touch of dynamic beauty to the back panel;
The black version adds a striking red master lens ring around the rear camera module, and the overall style is quite retro camera-like.
In addition, the Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra is also equipped with a high-strength aviation aluminum four-curved wrapping middle frame, an integrated crater lens design, a full-depth micro-curved screen, and Xiaomi Dragon Crystal Glass 2.0, which improves the overall strength of the phone while providing an ultimate grip feel.
With the continuous development of technology and the increasing demand of consumers for portable electronic products, the appearance and structural parts of consumer electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets are showing a trend of being thin, beautiful, and high-strength, which puts higher requirements on materials and processes. Fiber-reinforced composite materials represented by epoxy fiberglass boards have a specific strength and specific modulus comparable to metals, making them a popular choice for thin, high-strength mobile phone back cover materials.
In addition to the Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra, there are also a number of mobile phones and tablet back covers that use fiberglass composite materials, including OPPO A5 Pro, vivo X200/Pro Chenye Black, Xiaomi Mi 15 Pro (Stone Gray, Spruce Green, White), iQOO 13 Track Edition (Black), etc.
In addition to its application on mobile phones, fiberglass boards continue to penetrate into the tablet and e-book markets. Huawei's MatePad Pro 12.2-inch flagship tablet and Honor Tablet GT Pro both use lightweight and high-strength fiberglass back covers, which can achieve further thinning and weight reduction while maintaining the strength of the body.
