According to the post that shared the leak, Xiaomi is currently working on two new flagship smartphones. These are codenamed as Apollo and Verthandi, which are names based on mythical characters.

It is currently unknown if both devices are from the Mi MIX 4 series or if just one of them will be the Mi MIX 4. Furthermore, the company has yet to officially give out any announcement for the same. Notably, Lei Jun, the CEO and Chairman of Xiaomi Group, had previously teased a new high end flagship handset during the Mi 10 Youth Edition launch conference.
So, it could be in some manner related to either of the two rumored smartphones. The Mi MIX Alpha concept smartphone was a marvel of innovation and technology, which was revealed quite some time ago. The device never saw a commercial release, but reports have suggested that Xiaomi will launch the device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC. Meaning, the Mi MIX Alpha commercial variant could also be a possibility.
