Xiaomi is taking secondary display functionality a step further with the Xiaomi 18 Pro, introducing expanded software capabilities to the back of the device. According to a report from 9to5Google, the handset's rear displays are capable of running several everyday services and specialized software.

Among the supported software are key Google apps and popular streaming services like Spotify. This integration allows users to manage media playback, view updates, and access essential tools directly from the secondary screen without waking the main display.

The rear panel also supports custom generative AI applications, expanding what users can accomplish from the back of the phone. This could allow for interactive widgets, smart prompts, and tailored on-device AI tasks tailored for secondary screens.
