In August 2021, Xiaomi introduced the Xiaomi Mix 4, equipped with the Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset. However, the company did not release a successor in 2022 or 2023. According to a recent post on Weibo by the trustworthy tipster Digital Chat Station, there won’t be a Xiaomi Mix 5 this year, but there is a possibility of a device carrying on its legacy. The tipster did not provide any additional details about this mysterious device. A recent report from GSMChina indicates that Xiaomi is in the process of developing a new device named the Xiaomi Mix 5 in China. However, do not get too excited about it yet, as there is something that might dampen the excitement about its launch.
