Last year, Xiaomi had launched the Mi MIX Fold as the brand’s first foldable smartphone and now the Chinese company is gearing up to launch its successor, which is likely to be dubbed MIX Fold 2.
Ahead of any such official confirmation from the company, there have been few reports in the past few months shedding light on some aspects of the upcoming foldable smartphone and now we have a possible timeline.
A new report from Digital Chat Station reveals that the MIX Fold 2 foldable smartphone could get launched in the second quarter of this year (Q2 2022) which means that the device will launch before the end of June 2022.
If the previous reports are to be believed, then the upcoming second-generation MIX Fold smartphone will feature an 8.1-inch display with 2K resolution. It is also said that both the inner and the outer display panels on the device will have support for a high refresh rate.
It is also being claimed that this time, Xiaomi will be using new LTPO display panels on this flagship device, which means that there could be support for adaptive refresh rate as well, similar to what Samsung offers on its premium phones.
The device is most likely to come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor and is expected to have a higher capacity battery and support for fast charging as well as wireless charging.
Apart from the MIX Fold 2, Xiaomi could also launch another foldable smartphone named MIX Flip to take on the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series.
