Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 design and specs leak ahead of expected debut

Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 is expected to make its debut later this month as a successor to the Mix Fold 3. While the exact launch date of the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 has not been revealed by the company yet, a new leak sheds light on the design and various specifications of the upcoming foldable phone. The leaked render shows four Leica-branded cameras on the rear of the handset. The Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 is said to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC and will come with an IPX8 water-resistance rating.

The Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 is said to feature a 50-megapixel primary camera on the rear, supported by a Leica Summilux lens. This matches the primary camera on the Mix Fold 3. The upcoming foldable phone is said to be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, an upgrade over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC of its predecessor. It could come with an IPX8 water-resistance rating.

Finally, Blass claims that a 5,000mAh battery will power the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 with support for wireless charging. It could be less than 10mm thick.

The tipster notes that the image and specs belong to the prototype and that the design could still change before the final release. Hence, it is better to take these details with a pinch of salt until the details of the handset are officially announced by the company.
