Xiaomi MIX Fold 4: Leading with Innovation
The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4, the star of the event, captured attention with its three key innovations—architecture, hinge design, and battery technology.
Xiaomi has pushed the boundaries of foldable phone design, achieving a remarkably thin and lightweight build without compromising strength or features.
Lightweight Design
Xiaomi’s expertise in lightweight design culminates in the MIX Fold 4. The proprietary hinge technology uses high-strength materials and a wear-resistant carbon ceramic steel mechanism, reducing the hinge volume by 34%. When unfolded, the device measures just 4.59mm thick, offering users a seamless, lightweight experience.
This innovation extends to its “all-carbon architecture,” featuring carbon fibre materials in key components like the hinge and display backing, enhancing both durability and weight reduction.
Xiaomi’s commitment to precision is evident in the advanced three-dimensional stacking process, increasing battery capacity to 5100mAh. This, combined with the high-precision motherboard design, improves performance and reliability across all tasks.
Top-Tier Performance and Network Capabilities
The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 is equipped with the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform and an 11,912 square millimetre cooling system, ensuring high performance while efficiently dissipating heat. Its 5100mAh battery, powered by Xiaomi’s silicon-carbon anode technology, provides long-lasting battery life, supported by 67W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
Xiaomi also introduces advanced network functionality, with low-frequency antennas and Xiaomi Surge T1 signal enhancement chips ensuring smooth communication in any environment. The device even supports two-way satellite communication, providing users with connectivity in remote areas.
Stunning Displays and Imaging
The Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 boasts dual flagship displays, featuring a 7.98-inch Samsung E7 LTPO inner display and a 6.56-inch outer display, both supporting a 120Hz refresh rate.
The device’s Leica optical quad-camera system covers all focal lengths, including a 50MP main camera, 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and 115mm ultra-telephoto lens, offering unparalleled imaging quality.
Xiaomi MIX Flip: Compact Yet Powerful
Xiaomi also introduced the Xiaomi MIX Flip, designed to challenge the stereotypes of flip phones.
This device excels in performance, battery life, and network capabilities, delivering flagship-level performance in a compact form factor.
High-Functionality Outer Display
The MIX Flip features a 4-inch All Around Liquid outer display with a quad-curved design. The display supports seamless interaction with everyday applications, from communication to entertainment, and can handle most daily operations without the need to open the phone.
It offers a smooth, intuitive experience, thanks to Xiaomi HyperOS, which has been optimized for this display.
Flagship-Level Performance and Durability
Powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform, the MIX Flip is equipped with a redesigned 3D cooling system and a 4780mAh battery, surpassing even some non-foldable flagship devices in battery life. The MIX Flip also features Xiaomi’s signature composite fibre material, providing extra durability, along with a folding lifespan of up to 500,000 times, as certified by SGS.
Leica Imaging on a Flip Phone
With Leica Summilux lenses, the MIX Flip brings professional-grade photography to a compact foldable device.
Its Light Fusion 800 sensor and Leica telephoto lens support high-quality portrait and macro photography. The large outer display allows users to take photos and videos without opening the phone, offering a hands-free, tripod-free experience in hover mode.
A New Era in Foldable Phones
Xiaomi’s MIX Fold 4 and MIX Flip represent a leap forward in the foldable phone market, with cutting-edge technology, exceptional design, and user-friendly features.
Both devices push the envelope of what foldable smartphones can achieve, offering users lightweight designs, flagship performance, and unmatched versatility.
Starting at 8,999 yuan for the MIX Fold 4 and 5,999 yuan for the MIX Flip in China, both models promise to reshape the foldable phone industry for years to come.
Both Xiaomi MIX Fold and MIX Flip will be coming to Singapore and Malaysia soon.
