Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold With Liquid Lens - Unboxing & Hands By Speed Test

You swipe with your three fingers on the Mi Mix Fold screen, not like this guy using his middle finger, you will enter the PC mode, and you can fully take advantages of the inner screen. And that’s the new feature that I haven’t seen on other foldable phones. Interesting. Hey what’s up? Sami here. It’s finally here! Please sit tight and I will be showing you the first real unboxing of Xiaomi’s first foldable phone: the Mi Mix Fold. If you haven’t subscribed to my channel, please consider subscribing because we are always the fastest one from China doing this kind of interesting tech unboxing and reviews in English.

The Mix Fold adopts this folding box design, you have to unfold to open it. Isn’t that fantastic? The first thing you see when you open the box, there is one card that has Xiaomi CEO Leijun’s determination and signature on it. It says on the road to innovation, I will keep investing, keep trying, keep making breakthroughs, keep giving away this phone for free if you subscribe. Let’s keep unboxing. And that’s the phone! Do you want to hear some noise? Anyway, for the phone it adopts the classic Xiaomi design, which is on the right side it has a power key and volume key.

Long press to power on, while we are waiting for the initiating, for other accessories the Mix Fold has is a USB type-c cable, a phone case, and a 67w fast charging adapter. Yes, that’s basically all the box has. So about the phone, my first impression is yes, it’s heavy, it weighs a staggering 317 grams and the total thickness is 17.2 mm, basically two phones there. When unfold it’s 7.62mm for each side, and both sides have exactly the same thickness. Just like Huawei’s Mate X2, it has an inner and outer screen and the same folding design.

Xiaomi says the display is able to withstand being folded 200,000 times. If I fold 100,000 a day then I will break it in only two days. Yeah just kidding. The inner screen is an 8.01-inch 4:3 OLED panel with 2480 x 1860 resolution, a standard display brightness of 600 nits (900 peak), and support for Dolby Vision HDR. One thing I really like about this Mix Fold is the inner screen is a complete screen without any cutouts.

Also the bezel is slightly protruding for screen protection. And now about the crease I will just let you see in different angles. From my view, it’s yeah, obvious, but acceptable. What foldable phone doesn’t have a crease? You are not rollable phones. Also I found you can’t fold in any angle like Huawei, you either fold it or unfold it completely.

Now, let’s take a look at the outer screen. The outer screen is 6.52-inches with a 90Hz refresh rate, it is an AMOLED panel with 840 x 2,520 px resolution. Really not in the normal aspect ratio. You can also see a selfie camera here. That’s basically the design.

What do you guys think about it? You like it? Let me know in the comment section. Now about some gesture controls. One of the interesting gestures is the PC mode, you swipe with your three fingers, you will enter the PC mode. Under this mode, you will fully take advantage of the 8.01-inch inner screen and it looks like a windows PC desktop. You see the startup apps here right? You open and drag apps like how you would do on a tablet.

You can also open multiple apps at the same time, and if you use a stand to support the Mix Fold on the desk, and you use a keyboard, then a mini PC is born! The same gesture to exit. And you will back to a familiar mobile phone interface. The PC mode is a new feature that I really like to be honest. For other gestures, it’s basically the same as your mobile phone. For other hardware specs.

It sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB or 512GB of storage. Battery capacity is 5,020mAh, and Xiaomi says the 67W fast-charging system should get you a full charge in 37 minutes. As for the camera, does this remind you of the Mi 10 Ultra? Especially the upper 30x zoom lens here? Anyway, the Mix Fold is the world’s first Liquid Lens technology in the telephoto camera. It is made out of a flexible film filled with transparent liquid. It can change its shape, just like the lens in the human eye, thanks to a precision motor.

This allows it to adjust its optical magnification ratio from 3x to 30x (80 mm equivalent focal length at the wide end). The lens has a minimum focus distance of just 3 cm, which allows it to take macro shots and photograph faraway objects. For the specific specs I just list on the screen. Xiaomi is also making big claims about the Mi Mix Fold’s audio capabilities, with four Harman Kardon-tuned speakers and what the company describes as 3D panoramic sound. Let’s check it out.

Last for the pricing and availability, I will just put to the description you can check it out! Alright, that’s the video.
