Foldable smartphones are very popular right now, but only two brands currently control the entire market. A recent DSCC report shows that Samsung and Huawei account for 99% of the foldable smartphone market in the third quarter of 2021. While Samsung's market share is 93%, Huawei's is only 6%. The rest of the brands with foldable smartphones, including Xiaomi, Motorola, Royole, Microsoft, TCL and others, account for only 1%. New leak shows Xiaomi MIX Fold2 in IMEI database. The model number is 22061218C and the code name is L18. This will be Xiaomi's second foldable smartphone and will be officially launched in the second half of 2022.
The biggest advantage of the Xiaomi MIX Fold2 is the display. This time, this device will have internal and external screens supporting high refresh rates. As we all know, only the external screen of the Xiaomi Mi MIX Fold has a high refresh rate of 90Hz (screen size is 6,52 inches). The internal screen has a 60Hz refresh rate (screen size 8,01 inches). Xiaomi MIX Fold2 will update the previous generation and it will also be equipped with a camera under the display.
The only Xiaomi smartphone with a camera under the display is the Xiaomi Mi MIX 4. This smartphone implements a full-fledged full-screen mode without holes in the display. If Xiaomi MIX Fold2 uses this technology combined with the advantages of a large screen, watching movies, games and other scenes will be more immersive.
In terms of specifications, the Xiaomi MIX Fold2 is expected to be powered by the next generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 processor. At launch, it should be the most powerful MIX smartphone ever.
