Xiaomi with a Weibo post today announced a new ‘Exploration Theme’ for the Xiaomi MIX 4 smartphone. The packaging of the device has been upgraded and now features an astronomical theme complete with stars and planets.
Upon a closer look, one can see that the ringed circle is meant to depict the planet Saturn, while the rocky grey ‘planet’ actually is one of Saturn’s more prominent moons called Mimas. The overall theme of the box revolves around the color grey and it’s likely that this special edition only comes with the grey Xiaomi MIX 4. This is apparent from the official images that only show the device in a single color.
A special bag will also be given to those purchasing the Xiaomi MIX 4 Exploration Theme edition to complement the new box. This one is completely black and has a golden “Xiaomi MIX 4” text printed atop.
The device itself doesn’t seem to have gotten any changes in design and color though with the special edition and all of the tweaks are limited to its packaging alone.
Sadly, there is still no official news of the MIX 4 getting a global release, so the new “out of this world” unboxing experience may never make it to the global audience. There were a couple of indications earlier for a global release including a Bluetooth SIG certification and an appearance at Google Play Console, but they are yet to come to fruition.
The Xiaomi MIX 4 is powered by a Snapdragon 888+ processor and sports rare features such as a 20-megapixel under-screen camera and a ceramic body. It also comes with a 4500mAh battery with support for 120W wired and 50W wireless charging.
