We already know the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 is real and ready. Today we learned it is going to debut on October 25 in Beijing. Though its launch date has become known only today, we knew it will be a true full-screen smartphone with a sliding structure. There have been some assumptions and rumors concerning the hardware as well. As for now, MSP reports it knows the storage configuration and color option it will come with.
According to the source, the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will have three color options, including black, emerald green, and sapphire blue. As for the memory combinations, it will be available in 6+128GB, 8+128GB, and 8+256GB. Seems there is no 10GB variant rumored earlier. So it remains mysterious what means the 5G+10G formula in the poster.

Apart from this, previously, we learned the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will be packed with a Snapdragon 845 chip. Even don’t think of a newer processor because Qualcomm will uncover the next-gen flagship chip only in a few months. So it turns out the performance of the Mi MIX 3 will be identical to the Mi MIX 2S.
In terms of camera, starting the Mi MIX 2S, this series phones come with a dual-camera on the back. So it’s reasonable to wait for a similar camera on the Mi MIX 3 as well. According to the leaks, the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will sport a 16MP + 13MP camera on the back, and a 20MP camera on the front. The latter will have 3D structural light components allowing to unlock the phone with your face. It is also said the phone will support screen fingerprint recognition as well.
The starting price is assumed to be around $450.
P.S. Xiaomi has clearly hinted that the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 will be the world’s first 5G commercial smartphone.
Looking forward to the Mi Mix 3S, which should have any problems with the sliding mechanism resolved and should come with the SD8150. That would then be a phone worth upgrading to.
