Emir BardakçıExciting news for Xiaomi fans as the model “2505APX7BC” officially cleared the China 3C certification, unveiling some primary specs that confirm it as the much-speculated Xiaomi MIX Flip 2. As per exclusive data in the GSMA IMEI database, the device indeed happens to be the successor of Xiaomi’s groundbreaking flip-style foldable and goes by the internal codename “bixi.”
This news marks Xiaomi’s progress in expanding its foldable smartphone series, which have been making serious waves in the higher-end space. The certification information gives us the first official insight into the charging capacity of the yet-to-be-launched device, whereas leaks so far have already indicated great camera specs that will take the experience with folds to the next level.
Certification Specifications Uncover Rapid Charging Features
The 3C certification report contains some significant information regarding the prospective device:
- Model verified as “2505APX7BC” for the Chinese model
- Certificate Number as 2025011606767993
- Explicit labeling as a 5G smartphone Charger model MDY-15-EQ as indicated in the manual
- Continuation of the wired fast charging technology of 67W
Retention of fast charging at 67W indicates Xiaomi’s balance in both charging speed and battery efficacy for long-lasting performance throughout the device’s lifecycle. According to the pattern based on the model numbering, May or June 2023 seems a plausible release date for this highly anticipated foldable.
Camera system upgrades and processing power
Past leaks in January indicated major changes in the camera setup for MIX Flip 2. It seems the device will be making a strategic change in the lens arrangement:
- New replacement for the 50-megapixel OV50M 2x telephoto camera on the last generation
- Replacing a 50-megapixel Samsung S5KJN5 ultra wide-angle camera
- This adjustment implies a prioritization of versatility over the zoom function
Performance-wise, the MIX Flip 2 should boast the latest silicon, with rumors pointing to it being powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite or 8+ Elite chipset. This would place the phone at the top in the world when it comes to Android performance, with seamless multitasking and lightning-fast responsiveness even with heavy loads.
Worldwide Availability Confirmed
In a nice surprise for global Xiaomi enthusiasts, the firm seems to be rolling out the MIX Flip 2 with a global and Chinese release almost simultaneously. While the global edition carries the model number “2505APX7BG” with a disparity in the last letter only compared to the Chinese edition, it indicates the firm seems to be focusing on international markets with this one, as opposed to some other models that were kept exclusive in China.
