Third-party reviews

What we like about Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 (16GB + 1TB)

  • Extremely thin and light design compared to competitors
  • Excellent, bright inner and outer displays with 120Hz refresh rates and minimal crease visibility
  • Versatile quad-lens camera system with Leica optics and good optical zoom capabilities (3.2x and 5x periscope)
  • Impressive battery life, often lasting a full day even with heavy use, and potentially two days with normal use
  • Very fast 67W wired and 50W wireless charging support, with the charger included in the box
  • Powerful performance due to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset
  • Sturdy hinge mechanism certified for 500,000 folds
  • Good overall voice quality and excellent audio recording performance, especially with wind noise reduction

What we don't like about Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 (16GB + 1TB)

  • Officially only available in China, requiring import for international users
  • Chinese version software (MIUI) requires tinkering to get Google apps working seamlessly and lacks full Google services support like Android Auto
  • No official IP rating for water or dust resistance, raising durability concerns in wet or dusty environments
  • Some users reported minor software glitches, bloatware, and a finicky fingerprint sensor
  • The ultra-wide and selfie cameras are considered weaker than the main lens
  • Lack of support for certain network bands (e.g., LTE band 20 in Europe) may lead to connectivity issues in some regions

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 (16GB + 1TB) is a high-end foldable smartphone featuring a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, an 8.03-inch foldable LTPO OLED+ inner display, and a 6.56-inch AMOLED cover display, both with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 2600 nits peak brightness. A key highlight is the versatile Leica quad-camera system with a 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultrawide, a 10MP telephoto (3.2x optical zoom), and a 10MP periscope (5x optical zoom), making it one of the most comprehensive camera setups on a foldable device. The device boasts a very slim and premium design (5.26mm unfolded), a durable hinge, a 4800mAh battery with 67W wired and 50W wireless charging, and generous 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB UFS 4.0 storage. The main cons are its China-exclusive availability, meaning no official global release or Google services support out of the box, and a lack of official IP-rated water resistance.
