A recent report revealed that Xiaomi is planning on releasing the Mix Flip foldable phone in Southeast Asia and Europe. Considering how we’ve already compared flip phones like the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, let’s see how well the Xiaomi Mix Flip takes both of these devices.
1. Display
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 disappointed with its 3.4-inch Super AMOLED cover display, but its primary screen was a more respectable 6.7-inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X panel. Meanwhile, both the Razr 50 Ultra and the Xiaomi Mix Flip offer taller primary and external displays.

Xiaomi offers a 4.01-inch panel, while the internal panel has a 6.86-inch display. On the other hand, the Razr 50 Ultra sports a 6.9-inch primary screen and a 4-inch secondary display. So while all three models are quite comparable in the display department, Xiaomi and Motorola’s cover displays have a clear edge.
2. Flagship Chips
Xiaomi’s Mix Flip is a flagship grade foldable phone that is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. This is Qualcomm’s top end mobile processor that powers various ultra premium phones. Samsung also equips the same processor on its Galaxy Z Flip 6. In other words, the two devices have comparable performance. But this is where Motorola falls behind slightly. The Razr 50 Ultra is equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which is often seen in flagship killer/affordable flagship phones.
3. Camera
Both Xiaomi and Motorola again offer near-identical camera setup. The Razr 50 Ultra and the Mix Flip sport a 50-megapixel primary camera along with a 50-megapixel telephoto shooter on the rear, and a 32-megapixel selfie sensor on the front. Samsung did upgrade the rear camera on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 with a 50-megapixel main camera, but this is paired with a 12-megapixel ultra wide angle lens. Meanwhile, the front houses a 10-megapixel selfie shooter.
4. Battery Pack & Charging
Flip phones aren’t known to pack a big battery and this is one area where they are often lackluster. However, Xiaomi’s new Mix Flip has a robust 4,780mAh battery pack that supports 67W wired fast charging. This is noticeably larger than the 4,000mAh cell that powers both the Razr 50 Ultra and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Motorola brings a 45W wired fast charging, compared to the 25W on the Z Flip 6. Although, the Samsung phone has support for wireless charging as well.
5. Pricing
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 6 is the most expensive foldable phone out of these three devices with a starting price tag of 1,099 US Dollars. At the same time, the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra starts from 999 US Dollars, and the Xiaomi Mix Flip will reportedly cost 100 US Dollars less than the Galaxy Z Flip 6. This means that we can expect it to be around the 900 to 1000 US Dollar price range. With the Galaxy Z Flip 6 being its main rival, it offers competitive specs and a slightly more affordable price tag. If it does release in the global market like Europe and other Asian countries, then this could be a worthy flip phone to look out for.
