Xiaomi MIX Alpha officially unveiled: subverting the form of mobile phones and exploring the impossible

On September 24, the Xiaomi MIX Alpha 5G era concept phone was unveiled. A few people raised questions that MIX Alpha looked like a foldable phone that could not be unfolded at first glance.

Experts from the MIX Alpha industrial design team, engineering team, and other experts revealed the truth behind MIX Alpha.

According to the official introduction, MIX Alpha is a very direct product. It fully responds to our original intention of making the MIX series: to make the mobile phone disappear and let users hold a complete screen.

Engineers pointed out that the birth of foldable screen mobile phones is because some users want a portable pad. MIX Alpha is essentially a mobile phone, and we hope that it can be used with one hand in any situation. From a product perspective, MIX Alpha and foldable screen mobile phones meet completely different user needs.

    Xiaomi started developing MIX Alpha and foldable screen smartphones at the same time about two years ago. We will also launch foldable screen smartphones in the future, but these are two completely different types of products and cannot be confused. They both have their own value and can be chosen by users.

     Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, said that MIX Alpha represents Xiaomi's original aspiration for technology. Chinese technology companies also have such a sense of mission: once they identify a direction, they will explore it regardless of everything. All the exploration of the impossible today is to make tomorrow have more different possibilities.

Finally, the release date is what everyone is concerned about. MIX Alpha is expected to be launched in December and the price is 19,999 yuan.
