The top-end 12GB RAM/512GB internal storage version of the Mix 4 started at nearly US$1000 in China. Now, however, this SKU can be had for close to the original price of the phone's base model through an online retailer in the same country. It is also being offered in attractive bundles with accessories that get extreme on various levels in some cases.

The Mix 4 is Xiaomi's inaugural under-display-camera flagship phone; furthermore, with its ceramic back, 120Hz AMOLED display and 120W wired charging speed, it may be among the most premium devices the OEM has ever released. Nevertheless, it only really got conventional flagship-priced at the upper end of its RAM/storage configurations. However, for a limited time in China, this is no longer the case.

JD.com is offering the phone at a discount that brings its 12/512GB SKU down to 4,899 yuan (~US$770). For context, this is a little less than what Xiaomi was asking for the Mix 4's 8/128GB entry-level option on its August 2021 launch.

Then again, the deal only seems to be available if the phone is bought as part of a 5,499 yuan (~US$864) bundle. However, it may be well worth it to some customers, as its additional 2 items are a case for the phone, not to mention a top-end 100W Mi Wireless Charging Stand.

Again, the total price to get all 3 in 1 order comes in at less than the original price for a 12GB Mix 4. This deal is only valid from now until 6 February 2021 on JD.com, so Chinese consumers might be advised to move soon if they want this still-powerful flagship.

Then again, the deal might be a vague sign that its next generation is on the way. On the other hand, it is more likely JD is simply celebrating the Lunar New Year with this event.
