The upcoming Xiaomi Mix Flip, set to debut tomorrow, stands out as one of the initial clamshell foldables equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. Naturally, there's a great deal of interest in its capability to manage demanding tasks like gaming, especially given its compact design.
Thanks to a well-known tipster, Digital Chat Station, we don't have to wait for reviews to get performance insights. The tipster has already provided benchmark and gaming performance figures for the incoming foldable phone.
Benchmark Scores and Specifications
The device, featuring a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage, achieved an impressive AnTuTu score of 1.91 million. On Geekbench 6, the Mix Flip scored 2123 points in single-core and 6512 in multi-core tests, aligning it with flagship smartphones that have a traditional bar form factor.
Gaming Performance
Gaming performance also looks promising. The Flip delivered an average frame rate of 119.8fps in Honor of Kings at high settings while consuming 2.9W of power. In PUBG Mobile, the device maintained a steady 60fps at smooth settings with a power draw of 2.3W.
However, for more demanding titles like Genshin Impact, even with frame rate enhancement technology enabled, the Mix Flip averaged 59.5fps at 720p resolution while drawing 4.8W. The tipster recommends using a “heat dissipation back clip,” likely a cooling fan, if users wish to play the game at high settings.
Official Features
Officially, the Mix Flip boasts a 4.01-inch external display with 1.5K resolution and 1600 nits brightness. The cover display features uniform bezels and a curved-edge design on all sides, protected by Xiaomi’s Dragon Crystal Glass.
Xiaomi has also incorporated a dedicated earpiece and microphone above the top bezel of the cover screen, allowing users to make calls without opening the device. The external screen supports a full-size keyboard for easy typing.
Additionally, the device will come with a dual-camera setup featuring Leica Summilux lenses and will be powered by a 4780mAh battery.
