In recent days, news was rumored that it had something strange: the existence of one Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor. We know that on the date of its release, the device had a SoC Snapdragon 855 Plus, at that moment the top of the category. A long time ago the idea of a was feared version 2.0 with the new Snapdragon 865 but it was only a hypothesis at all confirmed by the brand.

There is no Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor: what has been turning on the net in the last few days is a big hoax
Without going into sterile controversy, it seemed all too strange that a smartphone of this thickness could receive an upgrade of poco level like this. Although the difference in performance between the 855 Plus and the 865 is not indifferent, we know that the cost of the latter is really high and we have seen it with Xiaomi Mi 10 and all the controversy about its selling price. In any case, the general manager of Xiaomi marketing Zhang Zhiyuan he expressed himself on this subject and silenced once and for all the rumors circulating at the moment.
The words are clear: there is no version with Snapdragon 865 by Mi Mix Alpha. Actually the news for which the device show in video by Agatha Tang, Xiaomi's Product PR, were the one with the aforementioned processor had no basis at all. Neither she nor the brand ever mentioned this SoC and therefore it seemed immediately absurd to us that the news was real. Fortunately, an official company figure has decided to put an end to these rumors without any sense.
