Earlier last year, a trio of renowned Chinese phone makers – Xiaomi, Vivo, and Oppo (includes Realme as well) – partnered to build a new wireless file transfer protocol for their Android-backed smartphones. This was back in August and we hadn’t heard any updates on this front to date. But, that changes today as the phone makers have jointly announced that their AirDrop-like file sharing service is launching globally very soon.
The blog post further adds that the peer-to-peer technology doesn’t disrupt the existing wireless connection and you can continue to go about using your smartphone while any huge files are being transferred. Vivo has today announced that it will gradually begin rolling out this feature to new products from February 2020. Oppo and Xiaomi are still to announce when their implementation of the same will go live globally, but you can already find the Mi Share in MIUI 11.
