Xiaomi to Global launching the Mi Mix 3 5G on 2 May 2019

The Swiss release should be the start of the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G's global release throughout May. Xiaomi is yet to confirm country-specific release dates though. The Mi Mix 3 5G shares most of its components with the Mi Mix 3, except that it features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC rather than the Snapdragon 845 that the regular Mi Mix 3 does.

The Snapdragon 855 integrates the Qualcomm X50 modem, which allows Xiaomi to bring 5G to the Mi Mix 3. The refreshed device should also have better battery life and performance than the regular Mi Mix 3 thanks to its newer SoC. We shall confirm whether this is the case if we can get our hands on Xiaomi's affordable 5G flagship.

The Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G is a flagship device from the Chinese leading brand and the first to feature a 5G connection. The powerful configuration with an equally powerful battery with quick wireless charging option makes this device a great choice for multitasking and gaming. Both the cameras are capable of giving a flattering photography experience. However, the absence of expandable memory storage can be a drawback compared to the other smartphones in recent times.
