Earlier this year, Xiaomi had launched its Mi MIX Fold, which was its first foldable smartphone that had a form factor similar to the Galaxy Fold series. Now, a new report has suggested that the company is working on a new MIX Fold device that will rival the newly launched Galaxy Z Fold3 from Samsung.
According to tipster Bald Panda (Via AndroidAuthority), the Chinese tech giant is working on a new MIX Fold series device. However, the new foldable smartphone will be a refresh model rather than a MIX Fold 2. Furthermore, the tipster added that the new refresh version will sport a high refresh rate external and internal screens along with a 120W fast charging support for its large 5,000mAh battery pack.
Notably, the new MIX Fold will reportedly also feature an under display camera module on the front. This is quite a major upgrade over the 67W charging on the original MIX Fold, which also only had high refresh rate for its external screen. The addition of the under display camera is also a significant update, although, its implementation won’t exactly be an upgrade in terms of image quality.
Unfortunately, it is currently unclear as to when the company will launch such a device or whether it is actually working on this device or not. However, previous reports had suggested that a new foldable phone from the brand will be launching sometime in the fourth quarter of this year. Note that we had also compared the Mi MIX Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 3, so you can check that out as well.
