The partnership between Xiaomi and Leica goes way back to the 12S Ultra, the Chinese manufacturer’s first phone to feature Leica lens. Meanwhile, Xiaomi released a couple of other smartphones that feature Leica lens, so Mix Fold 3 packing Leica-branded cameras doesn’t come as a surprise.
As far as the other specs go, little else is known about Xiaomi’s upcoming foldable smartphone. Rumor has it that the Mix Fold 3 will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and it will feature a 5x periscope zoom lens on the back. Design-wise, the Mix Fold 3 is expected to be thinner and lighter than the previous model.
Unfortunately, the Mix Fold 3 is likely to follow the same pattern as the Mix Fold 2 and remain exclusively available in China. We don’t expect Xiaomi to release the Mix Fold 3 globally, although surprises may happen.
