Back in July 2024, Xiaomi unveiled its first ever flip phone, dubbed the MIX Flip. We even had the chance to review the MIX Flip, calling it a powerful first entry but with a few compromises. But outside of China and a select few regions in Europe, the device hadn’t made a true global debut. This is set to change soon as Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun has just shared some exciting news.
Xiaomi MIX Flip Global Launch
The senior executive announced on X (formerly Twitter) that the MIX Flip foldable phone will be arriving in the global market this month. Lei Jun had teased the wider release a couple of months prior, and now, it seems like the launch is right around the corner. Considering the fact that September only has 10 days left, the MIX Flip could be dropping across the globe as early as next week.
So we can expect more information to surface in the coming days. To recall, the MIX Flip features a tall 6.9-inch OLED main screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, 3,000 nits of peak brightness, and 1.5K resolution. Meanwhile, the cover screen is a 4-inch panel that also offers a 120Hz refresh rate and 3000 nits of peak brightness. Under the hood, it is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC that is coupled with up to 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and 1TB UFS 4.0 storage.
A 4,780mAh battery pack powers this model, which supports 67W wired fast charging. Xiaomi MIX Flip runs on the Android 14 OS based HyperOS custom skin out of the box. For optics, the rear has two 50MP cameras, while the front has a 32MP selfie shooter. It was announced for a starting price tag of 5,999 Yuan or roughly 825 US Dollars, so the global price tag could be around this figure. India is also a key region for the brand so it is likely that an Indian release is near as well. This is still just an unconfirmed report, so stick around for more updates.
