Xiaomi has officially entered the flip phone arena again. And this time, it means business. The company just dropped a teaser for the much-anticipated Xiaomi Mix Flip 2.

According to reports, the company has confirmed its June 2025 launch. While the teaser only says “See You This Month”, trusted insiders and the timing of Xiaomi’s past launches make the release date feel all but set in stone.

But what makes this foldable so exciting isn’t just the launch. It’s what’s inside. And what it could mean for the future of compact flagships.

Let’s unpack everything we know so far about the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2. And why it might just outshine the Galaxy Z Flip 7.

Xiaomi’s Teaser Confirms It’s Coming This Month

Earlier this week, Xiaomi quietly updated its official website with a promo image teasing the Mix Flip 2.

It shows the edge of the retail box and the message “See you this month,” sparking a surge of excitement across the smartphone community.

This teaser comes just weeks after multiple tipster leaks claimed Xiaomi was prepping not just one, but multiple flagship-tier launches for June.

We expect these launches could include the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro, Redmi K Pad, and Redmi K80 Ultra.

If that lineup sounds familiar, it’s because 2025 has already been packed with big launches like the OnePlus 13s India launch and Vivo X200 FE and X Fold5 launch leaks.

The Big Reasons People Are Talking About Mix Flip 2

Insider reports make it clear that this isn’t just an upgrade to the previous Mix Flip. It’s a ground-up rework that’s trying to fix what people didn’t love the first time around, while adding flagship specs across the board.

Leica Camera Partnership Confirmed

Xiaomi has retained its collaboration with Leica, the German imaging brand known for bringing pro-grade optics to smartphones.

While we’re still waiting for full camera specs, leaks indicate:

  • 50MP Main Camera with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)
  • 50MP Ultra-Wide Lens (replacing the telephoto)
  • Leica tuning for vibrant, true-to-life photos

This makes the Mix Flip 2 one of the most camera-forward flip phones. This is a feature Samsung’s Z Flip line has often been criticized for lacking, even in its upcoming models like the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the Galaxy Z Flip7.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Takes Center Stage of Performance

The Mix Flip 2 is expected to run on Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which is a slightly boosted version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

Paired with Xiaomi’s latest HyperOS 2, based on Android 15, this combo promises blazing speed, efficient multitasking, and seamless AI processing. These are all in a clamshell form factor.

For context, the Snapdragon 8 Elite supports:

  • Advanced AI capabilities
  • Real-time HDR gaming
  • Power-efficient 4nm process

A Foldable That Doesn’t Compromise With Display

Foldables often force users to choose between form and function. But the Mix Flip 2 might finally blur that line.

It features:

  • 6.85-inch Foldable OLED Display
  • 1.5K Resolution
  • 120Hz Refresh Rate

That’s a spec sheet you’d expect on a mainstream flagship, not a foldable. Early leaks also suggest the external display is getting bigger and more usable. This makes quick glances, selfies, and notifications much easier.

Battery & Charging Provide A Powerhouse in a Small Body

One of the most impressive features so far? The battery specs.

  • 5,100mAh capacity
  • 67W wired fast charging
  • 50W wireless charging

To put this in perspective, most flip phones struggle to cross 4,000mAh. This makes the Mix Flip 2 one of the few clamshells with true all-day battery life.

It’s a similar leap seen in recent battery-first devices like the Poco F7 and the power-packed Vivo T4 Ultra.

Slimmer, Sleeker, Stronger

Foldables are often bulky. But Xiaomi seems determined to change that narrative. According to multiple credible leaks:

  • Thickness: Just 7.6mm when folded
  • Weight: Below 190 grams
  • Waterproofing: IPX8 rating for peace of mind

The smartphone is expected to come combined with a revamped hinge. This design promises better durability, smoother folding, and less crease visibility

This is another area where Samsung’s flip phones have drawn criticism. Meanwhile, competitors like the OPPO Find N5 Flip and the Huawei tri-fold concept are exploring their own take on flexible form factors.

Launch, Availability, and Global Rollout Plans

So when exactly can you buy it?

Expected Launch Date:

End of June 2025, alongside other Xiaomi devices.

Market Availability:

  • Initial Launch: China
  • Global Release: Expected within weeks, mirroring Xiaomi’s rollout strategy for recent flagships

India, Europe, and Southeast Asia are likely to be among the early global markets, with increasing competition from devices like the Realme C73 5G and compact flagships like the Vivo S30 Pro Mini.

Xiaomi Mix Flip 2 vs Galaxy Z Flip 7

It doesn’t seem to be that this isn’t just a new phone. It’s Xiaomi’s statement to the industry. We’re serious about foldables.

The Mix Flip 2 directly takes on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7, expected to launch later this year. Here’s a quick comparison snapshot:

If the specs hold true, Xiaomi’s offering wins on nearly every front, from camera to battery to display.

And with devices like the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra potentially skipping key upgrades, the Mix Flip 2 could pull ahead in 2025’s foldable race.

Does It Even Matter to Foldable Enthusiasts?

We’re at a tipping point in the foldable phone evolution. Early models were clunky, creaky, and compromise-heavy.

The Mix Flip 2 suggests that Xiaomi now seem to be ready to deliver a refined, premium flip experience without the sacrifices.

It’s lighter, more powerful, and has the camera system of a bar-style flagship. This is all while still folding neatly into your pocket.

For those who’ve held off on buying a foldable, this could be the one that changes your mind.

Final Thoughts

If you’re in the market for a flagship smartphone in 2025 and are curious about foldables, yes, this is worth waiting for.

With a powerful camera system, class-leading battery, Leica optics, and a sleek design, the Mix Flip 2 looks set to not only compete, but possibly lead in the clamshell foldable category.

And if you’re weighing your options, don’t miss recent launches like the OnePlus 13s and why it might not be as perfect as it sounds despite being a flagship killer.
