The wait has finally ended for Xiaomi fans. The Chinese technology company has confirmed the launch of their newest devices, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 and MIX Flip.

Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, confirmed in a post on X that the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 and MIX Flip will launch this July. Several sources also reported that the Redmi K70 Ultra will be introduced at the same event, although there has been no official confirmation of this matter.

Lei Jun's post also revealed about the newly inaugurated Xiaomi Smart Factory in Changping, Beijing. The factory is now fully operational and will be the production site for the upcoming MIX devices. The plant was founded with an investment of 2.4 billion yuan and has an area of 81,000 square meters. The production capacity of this plant reaches 10 million flagship smartphones per year, and this factory is dedicated to the manufacture of flagship smartphones.

The most interesting part of the post is the announcement of the Xiaomi MIX Fold 4 and MIX Flip. The MIX Fold 4 will be the fourth generation of folding smartphone book models from Xiaomi. Previous iterations, such as the Xiaomi MIX Fold, have achieved success in the market.

For the Xiaomi MIX Flip, it seems that Xiaomi has taken advantage of enough time to design and develop it. While other manufacturers have launched the third and fourth generations of foldable cmshell-type smartphones, Xiaomi will only introduce the first generation of their branded smartphones via MIX Flip.
