Xiaomi recently applied for a new patent. This patent concerns a new foldable smartphone that will be part of the Mi MIX series. The patent was found in the QCC application and could be related to Mi MIX 4 Pro Max or Mi MIX Fold.
The report is taken from the post on Weibo, a Chinese microblogging website that shared information about the new patent along with some of its alleged specifications. Notably, the upcoming device will be the Chinese tech giant's first foldable smartphone. Unfortunately, the real name of the device is currently unknown. This means that we do not know if the Mi MIX 4 Pro Max foldable device, as we reported earlier, or the Mi MIX Fold, as stated in the Weibo post.
The social media post also said the foldable device will feature dual displays and will be powered by a flagship-grade Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor paired with a 7-inch foldable display with a high 120Hz refresh rate. On the back, the main camera sensor will be 108 megapixels. Under the hood, the device will reportedly be fueled by a large 5000mAh battery that will also support 67W fast charging.
It is unknown if wireless charging will be enabled, but the Weibo blogger also added that the device will be released sometime after April this year. Keep in mind that this is still an unconfirmed report and the company has yet to make any official statements on the matter. So please be skeptical about this report and stay tuned as we will provide updates when more information becomes available.
