Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 has been spotted on the internet and could be launched in September in China. It follows the Mi Mix 3 which was announced last year in October and is arguably Xiaomi's most premium smartphone.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 could be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset which consists of an overclocked octa-core CPU @ 2.96GHz. The SD855+ is a slightly tweaked SoC for better gaming performance and power-hungry tasks. The leak states that this setup will be paired with 12GB of RAM and upto 1TB of UFS 3.0 storage options.

The phone is expected to feature a curved screen with a 2K (2048 x 1080 pixels) resolution. It could also have a 4,500mAh battery at its disposal with support for 30W fast charging. It's also likely that the phone is compatible with wireless charging solutions.

The pictures accompanying the leak indicate at a triple camera setup on the back. This includes a primary 108MP sensor, 16MP ultra-wide lens and a 12MP Periscope lens.

Details around the front camera of the Mi Mix 4 are still under wraps but we wouldn't be surprised if Xiaomi opts for a pop-up camera solution. The Mi Mix 4 is also expected to be one of the first smartphones to run on MIUI 11.

The leak also mentions that the Mi Mix 4 supports NFC and will reintroduce a 3.5mm audio jack to the lineup.

While it's only rumoured, we could likely see the Mi Mix 4 in the flesh in September. Until then, we request our readers to take this leak with a bit of salt. We will be keeping an eye out on the developments as we head to the official release, whenever that happens.
