Xiaomi has just announced that its first foldable flip phone, the Mix Flip, will soon see a global launch, right as the company has briefly overtaken Apple as the world’s second-largest smartphone maker.

    A global launch for the Xiaomi Mix Flip means the device will make its way to markets outside of China, such as countries in Europe. A US launch is not expected.

    Not much of a global launch then

      Well, it’s similar to how American bands go on a “World tour” which includes 30 US cities and maybe London and Paris, if they have a good day.

      Not to be sarcastic, but ‘global’, ‘world’ and similar terms seem to be in the eye of the beholder. 🤨

        The US is quite a large country though… Approximately the size and population of all European countries combined. Calling it a continent wouldn’t be too far off
