Xiaomi's upcoming models, the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max and Xiaomi 17 Pro, will reportedly debut with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 5 processor. Here's what we have learned so far about these anticipated devices.
The tech world is abuzz with excitement as Xiaomi announces its latest series, the Xiaomi 17, comprising the Xiaomi 17, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max. The series, powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, promises to deliver next-level performance and efficiency.
The Xiaomi 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, set to debut later this month in China, are the first smartphones confirmed to feature this advanced processor. In addition to its powerful engine, these models also boast a bold new design element, a secondary display on the back, branded as the "Magic Back Screen."
This versatile feature allows the Magic Back Screen to show different clock faces, act as a selfie viewfinder, display app information, and showcase colorful designs. Leakers have suggested that these models may launch globally later in September, with potential dates between September 24th and 26th.
Xiaomi's partnership with Leica continues with the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, as indicated by the Leica branding just under the rear cameras. This collaboration is said to have influenced camera tuning and image processing, enhancing the photography capabilities of these devices.
Interestingly, there is no Ultra variant in the Xiaomi 17 series this time. Instead, the standard Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max are expected to be introduced in India, with the Pro models maintaining their names.
The launch of the Xiaomi 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max in their home country, China, has been confirmed. However, details about their global debut are yet to be disclosed. The series is anticipated to be among the most powerful Android devices at launch, setting high expectations for Xiaomi enthusiasts worldwide.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Xiaomi 17 series as we await further specifications and global release details.
