On the evening of August 10, Xiaomi Chairman Lei Jun held a 2021 annual speech titled "My Dream, My Choice" and released the new MIX series phone Xiaomi MIX 4, which has been away for more than three years. The Dragon flagship chip 888 plus processor, the first Xiaomi CUP full screen, supports 120W wired instant charging, etc. The configuration is still very attractive. But on the other hand, we will find that Xiaomi MIX4 has many similarities with Xiaomi MIX4, let us take a look together now.
The biggest difference between Xiaomi MIX4 and Xiaomi 11Pro is the screen and image. After all, these are the main and differentiated selling points of the two products.
First of all, Xiaomi MIX is equipped with a 6.67-inch CUP full screen. Lei Jun said: First of all, it is a complete screen with no holes. The camera is placed behind the screen and threaded through the screen to reach the camera. Sensor; the screen in the photo area can be the same as a normal screen, with 400PPI, 100 full-pixel display, no screens, no mosaics, and almost perfect effects whether you are looking at pictures or fine text; Xiaomi The 11 Pro uses a four-curved screen with a hole in the upper left corner. It is certainly not as attractive as the MIX4 in terms of look and feel, and the four-curved screen has made many netizens dislike it.
However, due to the limitations of the CUP full-screen solution, the resolution of MIX4 only supports 1080P (2400*1080P). Xiaomi 11 Pro is a 2K resolution Samsung E4 screen. Judging from the screen display effect Said, 11 Pro effect is definitely better.
In terms of imaging, both Xiaomi MIX4 and Xiaomi 11 Pro are equipped with 20-megapixel front cameras. The only difference is an under-screen camera and a hole-punch camera. In any case, in terms of actual effect, Xiaomi 11 Pro is better. However, in order to achieve both the screen display effect and the image effect of MIX4, Xiaomi has also invested a lot of financial and material resources in research and development:
The CUP full-screen project began at the end of 2018, after more than 100 people from the Xiaomi screen display and touch department Engineers participated in R&D and invested more than 500 million yuan in R&D funds, ultimately achieving mass production of the third-generation under-screen camera solution. Today, Xiaomi has applied for 60 invention patents for CUP full screen and obtained more than 40 patent certifications.
Why doesn’t MIX4 carry the GN2 customized super outsole main camera?
Because the GN2 camera module causes the phone to become thicker (Xiaomi 11 Pro 8.53mm), the MIX series is well-balanced, more practical, and is a choice for more people.
Xiaomi MIX4 launches the first Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 plus processor, which is currently Qualcomm’s most high-end processor chip.
On June 28, Qualcomm released the flagship SoC platform Snapdragon 888 plus for the second half of the year. Compared with Snapdragon 888, it increased the main frequency of the X1 ultra-large core to 2.995GHz and improved AI performance by more than 20%. The computing power reaches 32TOPS. At the same time, in order to solve the serious heating problem of Snapdragon 888 on the Xiaomi 11 series, Xiaomi has adopted various temperature control measures: using heat dissipation materials on the hardware, with a total heat dissipation area of ??up to 11588mm, and using the latest graphene vapor vapor plate with an area of ??1232mm; The software adopts a balanced mode to limit energy consumption and control heating to meet daily use. I just don’t know what the actual effect will be, we can only use time to test it.
Comparison in other aspects
In terms of appearance, in addition to the front CUP double-sided slightly curved flexible full screen and the four-curved flexible screen with holes, MIX4 uses an integrated precision ceramic body, which is natural. , it is round and delicate when held, like gelatin in the hand; at the same time, in terms of color matching, in addition to ceramic black and ceramic white, it incorporates the beauty of the East to bring a new color matching - shadow cyan gray. Inspired by the shadow celadon of the Northern Song Dynasty, the color is green with white, and white with green flash, which is very popular. However, Lei Jun said that due to the complexity of the craftsmanship, Ying Qinghui’s inventory was not sufficient, so he simply wanted to grab it.
In terms of battery life, Xiaomi MIX4 is equipped with a 4500mAh capacity battery and supports 120W wired second charging, 50W wireless second charging, and 10W reverse charging, while Xiaomi 11 Pro is equipped with a 5000mAh capacity battery and supports 67W wired second charging. charging, 67W wireless second charging, 10W reverse charging. In terms of battery capacity alone, Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro is more dominant, but Xiaomi MIX 4 supports 120W wired fast charging, which can fully charge 100 batteries in 21 minutes. It also supports two-speed charging modes. If you are in a hurry, you can charge 80 batteries in 10 minutes and fully charge in 15 minutes. .
Xiaomi MIX has been released. Generally speaking, except for the CUP full screen and Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor, there are no other outstanding selling points. It is more balanced and in line with Xiaomi’s positioning of the MIX series.
At the press conference, Lei Jun mentioned: The front camera effect of Xiaomi MIX4 is still being optimized. If the user is very concerned about the selfie effect, it is recommended to buy a hole-punch screen. This will allow consumers to Should I choose between Xiaomi MIX4 and Xiaomi 11 Pro? Hahaha
