Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold Features and Specifications
Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold comes with an 8.01-inch OLED display set at an aspect ratio of 4:3. The company claims it is one of the largest displays on a foldable smartphone and offers a resolution of 1440p+. Xiaomi has also added a desktop mode that offers multiple resizable windows. Furthermore, you can control the desktop mode with a three-finger swipe.

The lens is made out of the flexible film and contains transparent liquid. Thanks to its flexible nature, it can change shape with the help of transparent liquid. Camera options include a 108MP primary sensor, 13MP ultra wide-angle camera, and a 13MP sensor. On the front you get a 20MP sensor housed within a punch hole.
