ITHome has uncovered the Xiaomi Mix Flip in the IMEI database, featuring the model number 2311BPN23C, cementing the previous rumors about its name. While the listing doesn't reveal much more, the Mix Flip's existence is now confirmed. Although Xiaomi hasn't officially announced it yet, a recent leak suggests that the Mix Flip will make its debut next year, alongside the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4.

Xiaomi's signature emphasis on sleek and lightweight design for its foldable devices is expected to continue with the Mix Flip. However, it's crucial to take these early leaks with a grain of salt, as many months separate us from the official launch, leaving room for potential changes and refinements.
