Looks like the Xiaomi 17 series is getting even bigger. Turns out the Chinese smartphone maker is all decked up to launch three new phones later this month, and it will be for India and a global rollout. We are talking about the Xiaomi 17T, 17T Pro, and 17 Max, and here’s what we know about the trio so far.
Xiaomi 17 series is adding new phones this month
According to a tipster, Yogesh Brar, Xiaomi is all set to launch a trio—the 17T, 17T Pro, and Max—with varying specs. For instance, the Xiaomi 17T will bring a 6.59” AMOLED panel with a Dimensity 8500 Ultra SoC under the hood. There’s a 6,500mAh battery on-board and a triple rear camera setup at the back. A leaked price revealed the phone with the base configuration of 12GB+256GB starts at EUR749 (or $878) in France. The pricing is likely to remain the same across the EU.
The Xiaomi 17T Pro, a slightly better variant than the vanilla 17T, will have a Dimensity 9500 SoC, the flagship-cadre chipset. It will come paired with a 6.83” 144Hz display, the same as the OnePlus 15T. We have a 7,000mAh battery under the hood plus 100W wired fast charging. The phone is likely to be pegged at EUR999 (or $1,170) for the 12GB+512GB, although it remains to be seen if this is the actual price for this configuration or if we have a different base config altogether.
Finally, we have the Xiaomi 17 Max, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC-powered phone with a 6.9” flat AMOLED 2K display, as tipped by Xiaomi Phones on Weibo. There’s a massive 8,000mAh battery under the hood, plus a 100W rumored fast wired charging. We have heard about a 200MP Leica primary cam making it to the 17 Max, along with a 3x periscope telephoto zoom and a 50MP ultrawide snapper. The phone is reportedly available for pre-order in China, although its shipping inside the home country is awaited.
