Xiaomi is gearing up for the launch of its highly anticipated 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max smartphones, as both devices have reportedly received certification for sale in China. With significant upgrades and cutting-edge technology, these models are set to make their debut in September, showcasing their impressive 100W wired charging capabilities and support for UWB.
According to leaks, the Xiaomi 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max will be among the first smartphones to feature Qualcomm's advanced Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro SoC, promising enhanced performance and power efficiency.
Insider Digital Chat Station has shared that both models will boast upgraded screens, improved camera systems, and better overall performance, alongside new peripherals. Interestingly, the standard Xiaomi 18 will not be part of this initial launch. It appears Xiaomi is taking cues from Apple, not just in naming conventions but also in the timing of their product releases.
While the Xiaomi 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max will be unveiled in September, the regular model is expected to be launched later in December, possibly along with the 18 Max variant. It's notable that the Pro Max could become Xiaomi's flagship device for an extended period, particularly if reports about the cancellation of the Xiaomi 18 Ultra hold true.
Stay tuned as more details about these exciting devices emerge leading up to their launch!
