The Xiaomi Mix Flip could give Samsung a run for their money

Xiaomi recently teased the launch of their next-gen foldable, the Mix Fold 4. But that’s not all the company has up their sleeves. In a post on Weibo, Xiaomi has also revealed that they have a new foldable phone in the works, this time in the form of the Xiaomi Mix Flip.

We heard rumors that Xiaomi could be working on a flip phone back in 2023, and sure enough the handset will be announced on the 19th of July in China. Based on what the company has teased so far, it looks like the handset could prove to be a worthy competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6.

According to the details shared by Xiaomi, the Mix Flip will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. It will feature a vapor chamber for cooling, LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 4.0 storage, and also the use of a 4.01-inch external display that goes up to 1,600 nits in brightness. The external cover of the phone also comes with an earpiece speaker so you can answer calls even when it’s folded shut.

It is unclear how big the internal display is, but other details shared by Xiaomi include a 4,780mAh battery. We have to say that we’re quite excited by the Mix Flip, so check back with us in the coming days for the details.
