[UPDATED] Global Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 is coming; here's its design & specs

UPDATED: It seems like the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 may not launch in global markets either. Our very own Erencan Yilmaz claims that it won’t happen despite Ice’s info. He claims only the MIX Flip model is coming to global markets. Let’s wait and see.

ORIGINAL ARTICLE: The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 is the company’s upcoming foldable, and its design and specs just surfaced. Before we get down to it, do note that the phone seems to be on the way to global markets.

The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 is coming to global markets, its design & specs leak

It was about time for this to happen. The previous three iterations of the device were limited to China, which was a shame. Based on the information from Ice Universe, one of the best-known tipsters out there, the phone is coming to global markets. The Xiaomi MIX Flip will also be available outside of China, by the way.

Ice Universe also mentioned that the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 will be extremely thin. It will be 9.Xmm thick, so similar to the upcoming HONOR Magic V3. That phone is also said to measure 9.9mm in thickness when folded. It remains to be seen which one will take the crown of the thinnest one, though.

With that in mind, Evan Blass aka evleaks, one of the best-known tipsters in the tech sphere, shared the phone’s image and some specs. You can check out the render he shared below.

The device will seemingly have four camera on the back, and Leica lenses

He did, however, mention that this render is a ‘work product’, so there’s a chance it’s not final. In any case, you will notice a huge camera island on the back. On the left side, four cameras seem to be located, along with an LED flash. On the left, the Leica logo and some sensor information.

The phone will be slightly curved in the corners, and it will seemingly be made out of metal and glass. A vegan leather variant is always a possibility when Xiaomi is concerned. That could help brush off some weight off the device too.

What about the specs? Well, Evan says that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will fuel the phone, as expected. A 50-megapixel main camera will sit on the back, and Leica Summilux lens(es) will be in use.

A 5,000mAh battery is mentioned too, as is wireless charging support. The phone will be IPX8 rated for water resistance. Evan also mentioned that the phone will be less than 10mm thick when folded.
