A day after it released the Mi Ultra, Mi 11 Pro, Mi 11 Lite, and Mi Band 6, Xiaomi has finally taken the veil off its foldable smartphone christened Mi MIX Fold. This one has got an inward folding design, much like the Samsung Galaxy Folds and the Huawei Mate X2. While its folding mechanism is something we have seen before, the phone carries a few other interesting specs up its sleeve. This includes a Liquid Lens, a 108MP primary camera, 4 speakers, a 5020mAh battery, a 67W fast charger, up to 16gigs of RAM, 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and the almighty Snapdragon 888.

Here’s the complete rundown —

In the unfolded state, you’ve got an 8.01-inch 1440p+ OLED tablet-sized panel. Weirdly enough, this is limited to just a 60Hz refresh rate. Meanwhile, the smaller fascia you see when the device is folded has got 90Hz refresh rate. This outer display is 6.52-inches in size, with 2520 x 840-pixel resolution, and is AMOLED in nature.

On the camera front, the standout feature is the use of Liquid Lens to move between 3cm macro and 3x zoom on the fly. Rest, the foldable also houses a 108MP Samsung ISOCELL HM2 sensor as the primary shooter, coupled with a 13MP ultrawide clicker. For selfies, you have got a 20MP sensor. Also, the image signal processing behind the scene is handled by the company’s in-house Surge C1 chip.

Another exciting aspect of the phone is its quad speaker setup, tuned by Harmon Kardon.
