This time around we have some exciting news regarding Xiaomi’s upcoming fodlable smartphones. The Xiaomi MIX Flip is expected to launch globally, while the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 could arrive sooner than expected.
The Xiaomi MIX Fold is expected to launch globally
Let’s start with the Xiaomi MIX Flip, the company’s very first clamshell foldable. Why do we believe it will reach markets outside of China? Well, because it appeared in the GSMA’s IMEI database with the model number 2405CPX3DG. That’s important because the ‘G’ at the end stands for ‘global’. Models with that letter usually launch in markets outside of China.
The same phone also got certified in China but with a different model number. That model has the 2405CPX3DC model number. As you can see, it has the letter ‘C’ at the end, which stands for ‘China’.
As a reminder, that phone is expected to be fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. It will have a 50-megapixel main camera, a 12-megapixel ultrawide unit, and a 60-megapixel telephoto snapper… if the rumors are accurate. It’s expected to arrive at some point between July and September.
The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 could arrive sooner than you think
What about the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4? Well, that phone could arrive sooner than expected. The Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 arrived in August last year, and this model could launch in July.
That info comes from ‘Smart Pikachu’, a Chinese tipster. In fact, the two foldables could launch during the same event, that would make sense for Xiaomi, that’s for sure. Both will likely launch in China first.
Do note that the Xiaomi MIX Fold series does not have a global variant yet. So, if the Xiaomi MIX Flip will launch globally, who knows, perhaps Xiaomi has huge plans for the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 as well. Let’s hope that will be the case. That phone will be fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 too, and it will have high-end specs in general.
