Xiaomi fans have much to look forward to as the company gears up for the launch of its next-generation foldable phone, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 foldable phone, in August in China. The event is expected to be an exciting affair, as Xiaomi reportedly plans to unveil a range of other products alongside the MIX Fold 3, including the Xiaomi Pad 6 Max, Redmi Pad 2, and Redmi K60 Ultra.

Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 to feature Hover mode

According to a Chinese tipster, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 will make its debut with MIUI Fold 14.1, a customized user interface of MIUI 14 designed to adapt seamlessly to the unique capabilities of foldable devices. This latest version is expected to enhance the user experience by offering greater compatibility with various applications and introducing a new Hover mode.

Earlier this month, tipster Kacper Skrzypek provided insight into the Hover mode that will be seen on an upcoming foldable phone, which appears to be the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3. These innovative features allow users to make use of gestures on the bottom half of the screen. Additionally, the tipster revealed that double-tapping will enable pause/play functionality, sliding gestures will allow for zooming, and users will be able to adjust brightness and volume with ease.

Hover mode, akin to Samsung’s “Flex Mode,” will be a convenient feature for movie lovers and media enthusiasts. It allows easy control over content with a 21:9 aspect ratio, providing seamless navigation for movies, songs, and videos.

The Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 is expected to arrive as a major upgrade over the MIX Fold 2. The reason behind it is that it is expected to feature the 3.36GHz Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (overclocked version), an under-display camera on the foldable screen, a periscope zoom camera with 5x optical zoom support, wireless charging, a waterdrop hinge, and an IP rating.
