Xiaomi Mix Flip and Mix Fold 4: Detailed Insights into Xiaomi's Foldable Devices
Xiaomi's First Flip Phone: Large Cover Screen Eliminates the Need to Flip
Similar to Samsung and Motorola's models, the Mix Flip boasts a 4-inch outer screen that caters to everyday needs without requiring the device to be fully opened. Its partitioned design and dynamic widgets offer quick camera access, time, weather updates, and personalized notifications via an AI-driven interface.
In recent years, flip phones have undergone a front-screen redesign trend, possibly initiated by Oppo in 2022 with the vertically oriented cover screen of the Find N2 Flip. This evolution continued with Motorola's 2023 Razr Plus and Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip 5 and 6, which expanded their outer displays for enhanced usability beyond basic checks.
The Mix Flip stands out with its bright 3,000-nit outer screen, matching the Razr Plus 2024 and surpassing the Z Flip 6's 2,600 nits. It features a Leica-branded dual-camera setup on the cover, including a 50-megapixel main camera and a 50-megapixel "floating" telephoto lens, optimized for stable, tripod-free shots.
Internally, the Mix Flip runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, housing a 4,780-mAh battery with 67-watt wired charging support. Notably, it lacks an IP rating for water and dust resistance, unlike its competitors.
Alongside the Mix Flip, Xiaomi introduced the Mix Fold 4, featuring a thin 9.47mm profile when closed and a 6.56-inch outer screen that unfolds to reveal a 7.98-inch inner display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It integrates a silicon-carbon battery for improved reliability and reduced environmental impact, supporting its sleek, lightweight design.
Both the Mix Flip and Mix Fold 4 showcase Xiaomi's commitment to innovative designs and advanced technology, though availability and pricing details outside of China remain undisclosed at this time.
