Xiaomi, known for its innovative smartphones and technological advancements, is preparing to introduce its fourth-generation foldable smartphone, likely named the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4, slated for a 2024 release. Historically, the Mix Fold series has been confined to the Chinese market, but the latest reports suggest that this may change with the Mix Fold 4.
Information from a report by GSMChina has revealed a forthcoming Xiaomi device bearing the model number ‘2405CPX3DC’. Typically, the inclusion of the letter “C” in the model number denotes a version designed for the Chinese market. However, the report also highlights a global iteration of this device, identified by the model number ‘2405CPX3DG’, characterized by the letter “G” at the end. While the IMEI database entries for these models do not specify their ultimate branding, the report strongly suggests that these variants are associated with the Chinese and global editions of the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4.
It’s important to consider this information with caution as there hasn’t been official confirmation from Xiaomi yet. However, if these rumors hold true, the Mix Fold 4 could mark Xiaomi’s debut in the global foldable phone market. The model numbers containing “2405” suggest a potential release around May 2024. To provide some context, the Mix Fold 3 was unveiled in August of the current year.
The Mix Fold 4 is not the only foldable phone in Xiaomi’s 2024 lineup. Recent reports indicate that the company is concurrently developing a flip-style foldable phone known as the Xiaomi Mix Flip, which can be identified by the model number 2311BPN23C. While an earlier leak from June hinted at the device being equipped with a Snapdragon 8-series processor, the exact chipset variant, whether it’s the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 8 Gen 2, or 8+ Gen 1, remains undisclosed at this time.
