Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 spotted on Geekbench with overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC

Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 is set to launch in China on August 14 and the brand has been actively teasing the handset’s design and specifications via Weibo. Just a few days ahead of the official launch, a Xiaomi smartphone, believed to be the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3, has surfaced on the Geekbench benchmarking site, running an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. It is shown running Android 13 OS. The foldable smartphone is confirmed to feature an 8.02-inch foldable AMOLED display and Leica-branded quad cameras on the back.

There is a Xiaomi smartphone spotted on the Geekbench website with model number 2308CPXD0C. The listing, which is believed to be for the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3, shows 2,071 points in single-core testing and 5,419 points in multi-core testing. According to the listing, the handset could come with 14.84GB of RAM, which on paper could mean it’s 16GB. The listing is dated Friday, August 11.

Further, the listing suggests that an octa-core chipset will be powering the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3. It shows a primary CPU core clocked at 3.36GHz, quad cores clocked at 2.80GHz, and triple cores clocked at 2.02GHz. These CPU speeds suggest an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. The original version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC has a primary CPU core clocked at 3.2GHz.

The Geekbench list was initially spotted by Nashville Chatter, but Gadgets 360 was able to independently verify it.

Xiaomi has already announced that the Mix Fold 3 launch will take place at 7:00 PM local time (4:30 PM IST) on August 14 in China. The event will also see the introduction of the Xiaomi Band 8 Pro and Xiaomi Pad 6 Max.

The Mix Fold 3 is said to feature an 8.02-inch foldable AMOLED display on the inside with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2,600 nits. The handset will reportedly survive 5,00,000 folds. It has a Leica-branded quad camera setup on the back and is topped with Corning Gorilla Victus 2 protection. Xiaomi says the handset can deliver up to 1.34 days of battery life.
