Xiaomi has officially announced its 15th anniversary launch event scheduled for May 22 at 7PM (local time). Shared through multiple official channels including company founder Lei Jun, the event promises a lineup of high-impact products. Here’s a look at what to expect from the upcoming launch event.
Xiaomi Xring O1, Xiaomi 15s Pro, Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra, incoming
The event will see the arrival of Xiaomi’s self-developed mobile chip, the Xring 01, a milestone product that signals the company’s re-entry into the mobile SoC space. The chip will debut inside the new Xiaomi 15S Pro, a performance-focused flagship phone.
Benchmark figures show the chip runs on a 10-core CPU layout (2 x 3.9GHz + 4 x 3.4GHz + 2 x 1.89GHz + 2 x 1.8GHz) and uses the Immortalis-G925 GPU. It scores 3,119 in single-core and 9,673 in multi-core Geekbench tests, placing it alongside Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Elite.
Also launching is the Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra, a 14-inch premium tablet with up to 120W wired charging. It supports a 3.2K resolution display with LTPO tech and advanced multi-window features aimed at professionals. The device could be equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset.
Xiaomi will also unveil Xiaomi YU7, the company’s first SUV. It is expected to feature a Saturn-ring style tail-light and dimensions of 4999mm x 1996mm x 1600mm. It includes high-speed performance and dual-motor options with peak output up to 390 horsepower.
The main focus of the launch is undoubtedly the Xring 01 chip and the Xiaomi 15S Pro, the first phone powered by it. According to Xiaomi, this chip represents the company’s renewed ambition in the mobile chip market. Designed specifically for flagship-level smartphones, the development of the Xring 01 began after Xiaomi revived its SoC efforts in 2021.
The chip is part of a larger 10-year strategy, backed by an investment of at least 50 billion Yuan (approximately $6.9 billion). As of April 2025, Xiaomi has already invested over 13.5 billion Yuan (roughly $1.9 billion) into chip research and development. This significant financial commitment highlights Xiaomi’s long-term vision to become a serious player in semiconductor innovation.
