A Xiaomi executive claims that the upcoming Xiaomi 18 Pro series will offer the biggest upgrade in the brand’s flagship series.
The Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max are coming this month and should roll out globally soon. Following an earlier confirmation of the models’ arrival, Lu Weibing (Partner, Group President, and President of the Smartphone Department at Xiaomi Corporation) has revealed that the phones will bring significant improvements.
The executive says that this will cover the chip, camera, and battery. He also confirms that there will be more AI features in the phones, supporting an earlier hint at the brand’s teaser about the phone’s rear displays. According to earlier reports, the secondary screens will support more AI capabilities, which might include AI generation. Lu Weibing also says that a better-quality secondary display is coming to the Xiaomi 18 Pro series.
According to earlier leaks, the Xiaomi 18 Pro will be armed with a 2nm chip, believed to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6. On its back, it will house a 200MP large-sensor main camera and a 200MP telephoto macro unit. It is also equipped with a huge battery with a starting capacity of 7000mAh, as well as 100W wired charging and wireless charging support. It will also inherit its predecessor’s rear display, with reports suggesting it will offer more features and AI capabilities.
