In an exciting development for tech enthusiasts, Xiaomi is gearing up to unveil the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2, a successor to its first-ever clamshell folding phone. Meanwhile, the global edition of the much-anticipated POCO F7 Pro has also surfaced on certification sites, building anticipation for its release. Here’s everything we know so far.
Xiaomi Mix Flip 2: A Step Closer to Launch
Xiaomi debuted the Mix Flip in July 2024, marking its entry into the clamshell folding phone market. Now, the Mix Flip 2 has appeared on the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) website, signaling a global launch.
The EEC listing features the model number 2505APX7BG, which aligns with the IMEI database entries for this device. The presence of a ‘G’ in the model number indicates the global version, while a separate model (2505APX7BC) is likely destined for the Chinese market.
Expected Launch Timeline
The numeric prefix “2505” in the model suggests a May 2025 timeline, aligning with Xiaomi’s typical mid-year launches. However, given the original Mix Flip’s release in July 2024, we anticipate the Mix Flip 2 to follow a similar pattern, possibly hitting the market by mid-2025.
Mix Flip 2: Will It Come to India?
Despite global buzz, the original Mix Flip did not launch in India. While there’s no confirmation yet, Xiaomi could surprise its Indian fans by bringing the Mix Flip 2 to the subcontinent.
POCO F7 Pro: A Global Contender
Adding to the excitement, Xiaomi’s sub-brand POCO is gearing up for the POCO F7 Pro’s global release. The device recently appeared on the UAE’s TDRA certification database with the model number 24117RK2CG.
This isn’t the first time the POCO F7 Pro has been spotted. It has also passed through certifications like the FCC (USA), IMDA (Singapore), and IMEI databases, confirming its global ambitions.
China’s Rebranded Variant: Redmi K80
In China, the POCO F7 Pro might debut under a different name—the Redmi K80—following Xiaomi’s strategy of rebranding devices for different markets. For example, the Redmi K70 was launched globally as the POCO F6 Pro.
What to Expect from These Devices?
Both the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2 and POCO F7 Pro are likely to push the boundaries of smartphone innovation:
- Mix Flip 2 could feature an enhanced folding mechanism, improved display durability, and flagship-grade hardware.
- POCO F7 Pro, rumored to be performance-centric, might offer a competitive price-to-spec ratio for global markets.
With certifications piling up for the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2 and POCO F7 Pro, their launches seem imminent. These developments underscore Xiaomi’s commitment to innovation and global market expansion. As fans eagerly await further updates, the stage is set for another exciting chapter in smartphone technology.
