It’s a great time to be a fan of small foldable phones. We’ve already seen Samsung and Motorola play their hand; now it’s Xiaomi’s turn. The Chinese company has officially revealed the design and key specs of the MIX Flip, giving us our first real look at the incoming device.
Let’s first look at the marketing render posted to Weibo. The phone packs a cover display that wraps around two primary camera lenses. It also leaves minimal bezels while showcasing several clock widget styles. The renders also reveal a single speaker grille, a svelte hinge, and a simple rear plate. Colorways on display include light purple, silver, and dark gray.
Xiaomi MIX Flip specs
Xiaomi also revealed several of the MIX Flip’s key specs. It confirmed that the phone would have a “third generation” Snapdragon 8 chipset, Leica-branded cameras, and a “multi-function” cover screen, which Xiaomi believes will make it a usable small phone when folded. It hasn’t yet revealed the dimensions of its outer or inner display.
However, the biggest reveal was the battery capacity. While the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Motorola Razr Plus (2024) feature 4,000mAh and 3,800mAh batteries, respectively, the MIX Flip will pack a comparatively massive 4,780mAh cell. In the flip phone world, that’s huge and should lend itself to excellent battery life.
The Xiaomi MIX Flip will launch in China on July 19, 2024, but it’s unclear if or when the phone will be offered to a global audience. The company’s larger foldable, the MIX Fold 4, is also expected to debut alongside it.
