It will be joined by the Mix Flip, the company's first clamshell-style foldable, which promises to revolutionize the concept of a compact and portable smartphone.

Furthermore, they will be equipped with Omnivision OV60A telephoto camera with 1/2.8 inch sensor for 2x zoom. The Mix Fold 4 will also stand out for one 12 megapixel ultrawide camera e a 10-megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom.
There will be no shortage of cutting-edge features such as email support wireless charging, while the specifications relating to battery capacity and charging speed still remain shrouded in mystery. Another novelty could be water resistance, a feature never seen before on Mix Fold devices and which would make the Mix Fold 4 the first to boast a IP certification.
The design will not be outdone, with the use of high-resistance materials that will not compromise the elegance and thinness of the device. It is rumored that the Mix Fold 4 may even surpass the Honor Magic V2, record holder for the thinnest foldable on the market.
