Xiaomi is gearing up to release its Xiaomi 17 Series very soon in the global market. However, the leaks about the next generation Xiaomi 18 Series have already started coming out, with the Xiaomi 18 Pro said to undergo major camera changes.
According to a new leak from well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, Xiaomi’s next-generation compact flagship features a 6.3-inch display and dual 200MP rear cameras. Although the tipster did not explicitly mention the name, it is most likely to be Xiaomi 18 Pro. The dual 200MP includes a 200MP primary sensor paired with a 200MP periscope telephoto camera. Compared to the previous generation Xiaomi 17 Pro, which featured a 50MP periscope camera, this new 200MP periscope is a major leap forward.
Earlier, we had only seen Xiaomi using a 200MP periscope camera for its Ultra model. But now decentralising it to the Pro and Pro Max model will increase the competitiveness of the entire line-up.
As of now, there is not much information about the 18 Series, but the smartphones are expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and Gen 6 Pro chipsets based on 3nm and 2nm architecture. The devices will also see enhancements in display quality, which is a normal routine for every year’s flagships. However, another worth seeing will be the battery capacity. The Xiaomi 18 Series is expected to have an 8000mAh battery with 100W fast charging and 50W wireless charging support.
