Mi Mix Fold Specs :-
Xiaomi has used a U-shaped hinge design on Mi Mix Fold that brings inward folding — similar to Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 and Huawei Mate X2. There is an 8.01-inch WQHD+ flexible OLED display with 900 nits of peak brightness and 4:3 aspect ratio. On the cover side, the phone offers a 6.5-inch AMOLED display with 840×2,520 pixels resolution, 27:9 aspect ratio, and 700 nits of peak brightness. The inner screen of Mi Mix Fold has a traditional 60Hz refresh rate, while the outer display carries a 90Hz refresh rate.
The flexible display of Mi Mix Fold also includes support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ standards. It also has DCI-P3 colour gamut and 4,300,000:1 colour contrast ratio. The external display also includes HDR10+ support and is capable of doubling resolution of pictures and videos to 1440p.
Under the hood, Mi Mix Fold has an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, along with up to 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The smartphone also includes a butterfly-type cooling system that has VC liquid cooling, thermal gel, and multilayer graphite sheets, among other heat dissipation methods.
Mi Mix Fold brings the Surge C1 ISP that is claimed to be in development for the last couple of years. The proprietary processor can offer high performance without consuming many resources. It is also touted to bring an improved 3A algorithm and low-light focus capabilities to bring more accurate autofocus, auto exposure, and auto white balance over the competition. Xiaomi claims that it spent CNY 140 million (roughly Rs. 157 crores) during the research and development stages of the Surge C1 chip.
In addition to Surge C1, Mi Mix Fold has a Liquid Lens technology that uses the principle of human eye bionics and forms a lens-like structure with a transparent fluid wrapped in film. There is also a high-precision motor to change the radius of the spherical surface’s curvature to offer up to 3x optical zoom, up to 30x telephoto, and a minimum focus distance of three centimetres.
“One lens virtually covers functions of two lenses. You can shoot micro-details up close, and gaze at magnificent rivers and mountains from a distance,” the company said in a blog post while defining its Liquid Lens technology.
Mi Mix Fold also has a triple rear camera setup that includes a 108-megapixel primary Samsung HM2 sensor, an 8-megapixel secondary sensor with the Liquid Lens technology, and a 13-megapixel sensor with an f/2.4 ultra-wide-angle lens. There is also a 20-megapixel selfie camera sensor at the front.
Xiaomi has provided a dual-cell 5,020mAh battery on Mi Mix Fold that supports 67W fast charging. It is rated to fully charge the phone in 37 minutes. Mi Mix Fold also includes quad speakers that are tuned by Harman Kardon and are powered by Xiaomi’s own quad-speaker algorithm. This is claimed to bring 3D spatial audio field playback.
Mi Mix Fold comes with a Corning Gorilla Glass protection at the back with a ceramic texture. There is also Mi Mix Fold Ceramic Special Edition that has an identical hardware of the standard model but with a gold middle frame and volume buttons, as well as a black ceramic back with special laser engraving.
On the software front, Mi Mix Fold runs on Android 10 with MIUI 12. The phone also includes a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Connectivity options include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, and a USB Type-C port.
