Xiaomi appears to be readying its next flagship smartphone series, the Xiaomi 15, for launch. A device believed to be part of the range has now appeared on the Geekbench benchmarking platform, with a chip that’s just mere hours away from unveiling.
The device is believed to be the vanilla Xiaomi 15 bearing the model number 24129PN74C. And it is likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, which Qualcomm is set to unveil at a launch event today.

The chipset scored 3180 in the single-core test and 10058 in the multi-core test. That’s a notable improvement over the previous generation Xiaomi 14, which typically achieved scores around 2100 and 6700 respectively.
The Geekbench entry also suggests the Xiaomi 15 will pack 16GB of RAM and run on an Android 15-based operating system out of the box. This aligns with our expectations for flagship devices launching in late 2024.
Moreover, rumors suggest that the Xiaomi 15 series will include three models: the standard Xiaomi 15, a Pro variant, and an Ultra version. While the Ultra may launch next year, the standard and Pro models could be the first to use Qualcomm’s latest and most powerful Snapdragon chip.
Globally, we might only see the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Ultra, as the company only launched their respective predecessors last year.
Additionally, details from the 3C certification website reveal that both the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro will support up to 90W wired charging using MDY-14-EC adapters, similar to their predecessors.
Despite these leaks, Xiaomi hasn’t officially confirmed any details about the Xiaomi 15 series, so it’s best to take this information with caution until official announcements are made.
