Leaks are abounding in China ahead of the launch of a new smartphone by Xiaomi, the Mi Max 4. The leaks suggest the phone may sport some high level of specifications, including the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ SoC.

Based on details being shared in the form of leaks and predictions, the Mi Mix 4 may be the first one from Xiaomi’s stable sporting the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ mobile platform. The chipset can clock an impressive speed of 2.96GHz. The RAM support is being predicted at 12GB and the internal storage will be a mammoth 1TB. Provision for UFS 3.0 storage is likely to feature.

The battery too is likely to be as large as 4500mAh and 30W fast charging will be feasible plus wireless charging and even reverse wireless charging are also predicted with the Xiaomi Mi Mix 4. Xiaomi’s inhouse user interface MIUI 11 is another feature that will be seen for the first time on this phone. MIUI 10 had been last version in use. One can presume that the UI would have been suitably adapted for the latest Android Pie version 9 OS.

Adding to the premium tag of the new phone, the rear camera setup will feature 4 cameras. The primary camera is likely to be 108MP. If this phone gets released as soon as next month, this would turn out to be the first one to sport a camera that crosses the threshold of 100MP, which has been figuring in the discussions so far.

The other three sensors are being rumoured to be 16MP and 12MP and the fourth one a periscope lens. A 3.5mm jack and NFC support are indicated. Another unconfirmed feature is that the phone will have a ceramic body.

Again, one more point emerging out of these leaks is that the Mi Mix 4 will be a 5G phone. Will there be a 4G version as well? Xiaomi is already ready with a 5G exclusive phone Mi 9S, an advanced version of the Mi 9.
