The arrival of Xiaomi Mi4, the new Xiaomi tip smartphone, was as usual accompanied by rumors, stolen images, false news, and various hypotheses. Eventually the mystery was dissolved today, as anticipated by the anticipated launch event. So here's everything you need to know about the Xiaomi Mi4!
Xiaomi Mi4
The launch event held today confirmed once again the widespread juxtaposition of Xiaomi to one of the leading companies in the mobile technology sector, Apple. In the past there was talk of similarities, of inspirations. Today it seems more that Xiaomi is following Apple's trail, because of the type of recent products that for the way of being a company.
In any case, the launch introduced a new, very interesting device to the world, the Xiaomi Mi4, ready to enter the market fight between the latest generation smartphones.
The speculations that preceded the launch were mainly the processor of the device. Someone talked about Nvidia Tegra K1, which Xiaomi has implemented in her Xiaomi Mi Pad, while others were talking about Qualcomm Snapdragon 805, the company's chip that was mainly voted on 4k videos. The processor chosen by Xiaomi for his Mi4 is Qualcomm Snapdragon 801, SoC seen in all major smartphones in the competition.
The choice could bring with it several important implications. The arrival of the Xiaomi Mi4 is certainly late compared to the arrival of the top of the range of rival companies, but Xiaomi has always focused on a feature hardly found among companies outside of China: the low price.
Yet the Mi4 will certainly not be the first top of the range from the low price with Qualcomm Snapdragon 801. So what could the Mi4 offer compared to the competition? We believe that the answer can be availability. The 801 chip has been on the market for quite a while, so Xiaomi could offer its incredible sales prices without waiting, without invitations, without limited stocks, and this could represent a significant advantage over the opponents.
Xiaomi Mi4 - Technical Specifications
The Mi4 technical specifications, in addition to the down processor below Snapdragon 801, continue with 3GB of RAM RAM LP-DD3 very fast, 16 or 64 GB internal eMMC memory and one battery from 3080mAh which should last a day and a half "with normal use".
The smartphone display will instead be a 5 inches with resolution Full HD. For the production of the Xiaomi display, it was entrusted to JDI, but Sharp's name also emerged during the presentation, so the Xiaomi Mi4 could come with a display made by one or the other manufacturer.
The smartphone's photogallery is also a progression to the previous Xiaomi Mi3, but not a real revolution. The front camera is undoubtedly greatly improved, as it is a camera Sony from 8 mega-pixels with opening F1.8 and angle of 80 degrees, really remarkable. The rear camera, which many would expect from 16 or 20 mega-pixels, will instead be a 13 mega-pixels realized by Sony with F1.8 aperture, recording videos in 4K ed HDR in real time.
Given the great results achieved by Vivo with Sony's Vivo Xshot sensor, we hope that Xiaomi has worked as well on the software as possible, delivering the Xiaomi Mi4 of a true top-of-the-range photo compartment.
As for the smartphone battery, in addition to good capacity, fast charging support will be guaranteed, with approximately 60% of charge recharged in just an hour. The rest of the hardware provides for the 4G connectivity (which would look global but we expect accurate information), the infrared sensor and the touch screen with support for wet gloves and hands.
Xiaomi Mi4 - Design
The design of Xiaomi Mi4 is a very important aspect, on which Xiaomi has long stood during the event today. First of all, the company greatly reduced the Xiaomi Mi4 frames, solving the default of the previous Mi3. With a display of 5 inches and thin frames, the new top of the range looks really handy and comfortable to use.
The news that Xiaomi has focused most on is the new one chassis made of aluminum, which gives elegance to the design and strength to the structure. The company has shown this aspect in detail, with several images and a video showing the complex production process.
The design of Mi4 shows a number of inspirations, including the previous Xiaomi devices, the Huawei Ascend P7 and the iPhone 5S. The result, though not original, looks beautiful and elegant, but this rating is very subjective, so we leave you with a real photo gallery of the device and with a first video hands on.

Xiaomi Mi4 - Price
As with Xiaomi tradition, the price of the device is the icing on the cake. At current exchange rates, the prices are of 240 € for the version of 16GB e 300 € for that from 64GB. Availability will be available between July and August for major Chinese operators, followed by other markets.
We hope to see it soon through the usual importers, as, for example, the now very reliable Xiaomishop.it!
