Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 leak reveals stronger hinge, 2-way satellite connectivity and more

Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 specifications (leaked)

Tipster DigitalChatStation has posted the supposed specs of the MIX Fold 4 on the Chinese microblogging site, Weibo. While he hasn't specified the phone's name, writer @ZionsAnvin claims this to be MIX Fold 4.

• Design: As already mentioned, the upcoming Xiaomi foldable could have a stronger hinge. This could also result in a lesser visible crease. 
• Weight: It is believed to weigh between 220g and 240g.
• Memory: Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 could ship with up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage. 
• Battery: Under the hood, it could pack a 5,000mAh battery with 100W charging support.

• Processor: The device could be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset
• Camera: The primary sensor at the back of the device is said to be a 50MP unit. This could be accompanied by a periscope lens, another telephoto lens and perhaps even an ultrawide shooter.
• 2-way satellite connectivity: Although all its ports and IO details aren't out, the tipster suggests the phone could sport two-way satellite communication. This means the Mix Fold 4 could connect to a low-orbit satellite and allow network connectivity to phones in places where on-ground cell towers are few and far between.
• X-axis vibration motor: You could get an X-axis vibration motor for haptics. Compared to a Z-axis motor, this one is quicker, has stronger vibration and consumes less power. 

Besides the details claimed by DCS, we also expect Android 14-based HyperOS on top of this hardware. Xiaomi could be using an improved AMOLED display on the cover and main screen.

The MIX Fold 3 debuted in August 2023 and so, we think there's time till we get more details about the device.
