Around three weeks ago, Xiaomi Malaysia teased a release window for its Mi Mix 3 phone. Back then, all there was to work with was a month. Now, the company has announced an official launch date.
The company shared an image on its Facebook page, with a date reading 12 January and the Mi MIx 3 phone. Unlike the last teaser, there’s no mention of price, the only missing piece of information left.
As a quick recap, the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 comes with a magnetic-sliding body. Beneath the sliding display is the dual-front camera setup that consists of a 24MP sensor and another with 2MP. The display itself is a 6.39-inch Full HD + display with a 93.4% screen-to-body ratio.
Based in the previous teaser, we can expect two configurations to enter the Malaysian market. When we look at the prices of the Mi Mix 3 in China, it’s likely that we’ll get the 6GB/128GB variant, or the one with 8GB/128GB configuration.
The 8GB/256GB model is technically priced under RM2500 after directly converting from its price in China, but it’s difficult to say if it will stay below the RM2500 mark if it were to make an official appearance. And finally, the 10GB/256GB Palace Museum Edition will most likely not make the cut, as it’s priced well above the RM2500 mark.
All that said, we’ll just have to twiddle our thumbs patiently until 12 January to find out for sure.
