The first Xiaomi foldable smartphone was introduced in March 2021, remaining an exclusive for the manufacturer’s domestic market. However, we now have the first signs and characteristics of its successor, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 2.
Lei Jun’s company will be working on a successful successor to surprise the industry again. Thus, it is natural that we receive the first details of the screens (inside and outside), as well as information about their cameras.
Xiaomi MIX Fold 2 will face Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4
Firstly, it is important to emphasize that the source is one of solid credibility, more specifically the leaker Digital Chat Station that, through the Chinese social network Weibo, would share the details. However, his report was also published by the publication ITHome.
Secondly, the mobile phone will be codenamed “zizhan”, using model number 22061218C. The product is currently under development, without images of it being known. Note that the illustrations in this article reflect the first generation product, the Mi MIX Fold.
2.5 LTPO AMOLED display up to 8 inches in MIX Fold 2
The information tells us that the phone will have two main screens with 8 inches and 6.5 inches, respectively. The best of everything? The panels will have two fold axes, that is, they will be able to open and close in two directions, maintaining the typology of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold, in book format.
We can also point out that the Xiaomi mobile phone will have an LTPO AMOLED panel with a variable refresh rate up to 120 Hz and a maximum resolution of 2.5K. That is, it will be one of the highest resolution screens ever used in folding smartphones if this leak actually has a credible basis.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 Will Be Your SoC
The choice of processor is also predictable, this being the most powerful System on chip (SoC) available for Android smartphones in mid-2022. In addition, the brand will have tried to solve the problem of creasing on folding screens once and for all.
This is an area in which practically all technology companies that have some kind of foldable smartphone have been working, with gradually satisfying results. Thus, we hope that the new MIX Fold 2 will bring an even fuller screen and without creases.
On the other hand, based on previous leaks, we know that its charging power will be 67 W, qualifying for (very) fast charging. Even so, the capacity of this energy cell may be lower than its predecessor.

Information leaks also place a 50 MP main camera in the MIX Fold 2 on the outside of the foldable smartphone. By the way, this camera will also present Leica’s branding, enhancing the partnership between both brands.
Apparently this camera should be able to capture video in HDR (Dolby Vision) and use Xiaomi’s Surge C1 chip to improve image processing. At the moment we don’t have more details about the photographic department of the mobile phone.
Finally, the mobile phone is expected to be relatively light compared to other folding smartphones on the market. In addition, it may also be thinner than its predecessor and arrive in July 2022.
