Xiaomi recently launched its flagship smartphone in the form of Mi 11 and the company is expected to launch a couple of more devices in the lineup, including the upcoming Mi 11 Pro which could be announced later this month.
Now, Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, has confirmed that the company is gearing up to launch the highly-anticipated Mi MIX series smartphone, after a gap of about two years. It is also touted to be the most expensive phone from the Chinese company.
Recently, Xiaomi’s founder and CEO Lei Jun had asked users on Weibo if they would be willing to buy a smartphone worth 10,000 yuan and what would they expect from it. In response, users said they expect super quality at such a high price as well as enough stockpile to be able to purchase the phone.
Reports indicate that the smartphone Lei Jun is talking about is the Mi MIX series smartphone, expected to launch this year. Unlike the Mi MIX Alpha smartphone, this won’t be a concept phone and will be mass-produced and sold commercially.
While not much is known about the upcoming Mi MIX smartphone at this time, reports say that the company could be opting for a foldable design that can be opened and closed like a book. In that case, it will be the first foldable smartphone from Xiaomi. Given that Mi MIX is an experimental lineup, it seems totally possible.
