The Mi MIX 4 may actually launch under a different name based on a ruling that prevents Xiaomi from using the MIX name. A new trademark application filed a few weeks ago reveals what the name of the phone may be and surprisingly, it still has “MIX” in it.
A document has surfaced online and it reveals that at the end of August, Xiaomi applied for a trademark application for the name Xiaomi MIX ALPHA.
The MIX Alpha may as well be the official name of the upcoming MIX flagship instead of Mi MIX 4.
Actually, this is not the first time we have heard of the name. Xiaomishka tweeted earlier this month that Xiaomi found a way to keep using the MIX name and that is by adding greek alphabets to the name.

Although the trademark application spells out “Alpha”, Xiaomi may also stylize it as Mi MIXα. But that is not all the document reveals.
It also shows that Xiaomi filed a trademark application for “Xiaomi Watch COLOR” early this month. This should be the name of an upcoming smartwatch we have not heard of before and might be a surprise product that would launch on September 24. Xiaomi is actually quite good at keeping certain products a secret and the very first Mi MIX smartphone is a perfect example.
The Xiaomi Watch COLOR should be the first Mi branded smartwatch by the company and we believe it will be made by Huami who manufactures the Mi Band for Xiaomi.
What do you think about the name Mi MIX ALPHA, Yay or Nay? Do let us know in the comment box.
