Xiaomi working on a smartphone as powerful as a PC

Xiaomi is working on the new Mi Mix 4, a premium smartphone that should provide top-of-the-line performance

The power achieved by the current generation of smartphones is amazing: they can do anything and have computer-like features. And in the near future they’ll be even more powerful and high-performance. It is news these days that Xiaomi is working on a new top-of-the-line smartphone with as much as 16GB of RAM. This is not the first device that integrates such a high amount of RAM, but it will be the remaining technical components that will make it one of the most powerful ever.

For the moment it is not known which model will integrate the 16GB of RAM, but all clues lead to the same solution: the number 1 candidate is the new Mi Mix 4. The Mi Mix series has always been one of the most innovative of the Chinese company and has always been used to experiment with new designs and to launch smartphones with premium features. And the new Mi Mix 4 is expected in the second half of the year, the perfect time to launch a new top-of-the-line device with the Snapdragon 865 or Snpadragon 865+ on board.

Mi Mix 4, the technical specifications

Xiaomi is betting a lot on the Mi Mix 4 and for this reason is putting together a premium smartphone spec sheet, at the same level as the various Huawei P40 Pro and Galaxy S20. On board there will most likely be the Snapdragon 865 or Snapdragon 865+, chipsets designed to offer top performance and support for 5G. The spec sheet is completed by 16GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The screen will be 6.7 inches with FullHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Alleged images of the smartphone have also appeared online showing a design with ultra-thin bezels and no screen holes. Xiaomi could be one of the first companies to launch a device with a front-facing camera hidden under the display.

The photo compartment will also be top of the line, as will the whole device. It is not known how many rear cameras will be, but the main sensor should be 108 Megapixels and the telephoto lens should have a digital zoom up to 120x. Sure also the presence of a lens for the depth of field.

We expect a battery of at least 5000mAh to ensure an autonomy that allows you to get to the end of the day without too many problems. Sure the presence of super-fast charging.

When will the Mi Mix 4 arrive

The period in which usually Xiaomi presents the new Mi Mix series is between September and October and so it should happen again this year. As it happened with the previous models, the Mi Mix 4 will also arrive in Italy, but don’t expect low-cost prices: it will be a premium smartphone and the price will start from at least 700-800 euros.
