At the CES 2019 tech fair which was held in January 2019, the company showed off the 5G variant of the Mi Mix 3 but did not disclose the launch date and the price. Mobile World Congress is definitely a good platform to disclose the details about the 5G variant of the Mi Mix 3 because, after China, Europe is the country which is eagerly waiting for its launch as it has 5G network. India is also a major Market for Xiaomi but there is a lack of 5G networks. The other countries which have 5G network including South Korea and US, there is absence of Mi smartphones. Xiaomi stated many times that US will get its smartphones but till now nothing such happened.
In October 2018, the Mi Mix 3 was introduced with 4G connectivity. The smartphone features a sliding selfie camera, a dual camera set up at the back, two front cameras and a bezel-less display.
Let us wait and watch what Xiaomi is going to showcase at the event. Will it showcase the 5G variant of Mix Mix 3 or give details about the availability of the Mi 9 in foreign markets or will introduce its foldable phone?
