Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 design officially confirmed: Gallery

The Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 design has been officially confirmed by the company’s CEO. Lei Jun decided to share a bunch of images of the device ahead of launch. This came following yesterday’s launch date announcement, and video teaser.

Before we get down to the images, do note that the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 will launch on August 14. This will become the third-gen book-style foldable from the company, and the company says that this will be a no-compromise device.

In the gallery at the bottom of the article, you can check out the device itself. You can clearly see it will be quite thin, in both its folded and unfolded states. That is not surprising, as the MIX Fold 2 was as well.

The question remains, however, whether will it be able to trump the HONOR Magic V2 in that regard. Its sides will be flat, but with chamfered edges, for comfort. A display camera hole will sit on the cover display, while we’re not sure about the main panel.

Four cameras will be included on the back of this phone. Those cameras will be backed by Leica, as the two companies are partnered up still. By the shape of one of the sensors on the back, we can see that we’ll get a periscope telephoto camera here

The phone is also expected to offer a truly compelling set of cameras

In addition to that, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 will likely deliver a wide-angle (main) camera, an ultrawide unit, and a telephoto camera. Based on rumors, we’re getting a telephoto camera with 3.2x optical zoom, and a periscope telephoto unit with a 5x optical zoom.

You can see that at least this black-colored model of the MIX Fold 3 has an eco-leather backplate. I much appreciate that, especially on foldables, as it helps with the grip quite a bit.

The phone is also tipped to include the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 4.0 flash storage, and two 120Hz OLED display. Those two panels are said to measure 8.02 and 6.5 inches. 67W wired, and 50W wireless charging was also mentioned in rumors. We’re still not sure if this phone will make it to markets outside of China, its predecessors did not.
