What we like about Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 (16GB + 1TB)

  • Extremely slim and lightweight design (approx. 226g, 9.47mm folded) compared to rivals
  • Large, bright displays (7.98-inch inner, 6.56-inch cover) with 120Hz refresh rates and high peak brightness
  • Long-lasting 5,100 mAh battery that performs well in endurance tests compared to competitors
  • Excellent overall performance powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor
  • Durable build with IPX8 water resistance and a robust carbon fiber hinge tested to 500,000 folds
  • Versatile Leica-engineered quad-camera system (50MP main, 2x telephoto, 5x periscope, ultrawide) that captures photos with great color, contrast, and detail
  • Useful features like 67W wired and 50W wireless fast charging, NFC, and an IR blaster
  • The large inner screen is great for content consumption and photo editing

What we don't like about Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 (16GB + 1TB)

  • Primarily a China-only model with no official US or global launch, requiring import and manual Google Play Store installation
  • Software is largely in Chinese/English only, and AI features are currently locked to Mandarin speakers
  • Disappointing camera quality in some situations, particularly with the front-facing selfie cameras which can produce washed-out images with over-the-top beautifying effects
  • The screen crease is noticeable and deep enough to be felt when swiping across the inner display
  • Can experience performance throttling and heating during heavy gaming sessions due to its thin design
  • The 2x telephoto lens lacks optical image stabilization (OIS), leading to potentially blurry low-light photos
  • The cover display is prone to smudges and fingerprints

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 (16GB + 1TB) is an ultra-thin and lightweight foldable flagship smartphone, measuring just 9.47mm thick when folded and weighing 226g, with IPX8 water resistance and a durable carbon fiber hinge. Key specs include the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and 1TB of fast UFS 4.0 storage. It boasts a large, bright 7.98-inch inner LTPO AMOLED display and a functional 6.56-inch AMOLED cover screen, both with a 120Hz refresh rate and 3000 nits peak brightness. A versatile Leica-branded quad-camera system with a 50MP main sensor and 5x periscope telephoto zoom, along with a substantial 5100mAh battery supporting 67W wired and 50W wireless charging, are major pros. However, significant cons include its limited availability, as it is officially sold exclusively in China, meaning users outside of that region must import it and deal with potential software issues (lack of pre-installed Google services) and disappointing front-facing camera performance.
