The Xiaomi 16 is still a few months away from going official, but fresh leaks from China are filling in the blanks. Following up on the first renders that surfaced last week, a new report from Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station has now revealed some of the key specs of the Xiaomi 16.
Xiaomi 16 Specs (Expected)
According to the leak, the Xiaomi 16 will be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. Qualcomm is set to unveil its next flagship chipset in September, and Xiaomi will likely be the first to launch it in a phone.
On the camera front, the Xiaomi 16 is said to feature a trio of 50-megapixel sensors: a 1/1.3-inch main camera, an ultra-wide, and a telephoto with macro support.
The battery also looks unusually large for a non-Pro model. The leak claims a capacity of over 6,500mAh, which would be a noticeable bump from the 5,400mAh of the Xiaomi 15.
As for the display, it is expected to have a 6.3-inch flat OLED display with very thin bezels on all four sides. It will run Android 16 with Xiaomi’s upcoming HyperOS 3.0.
Another detail worth noting is the design. The leaked renders show a dual-tone back panel for the Xiaomi 16, much like what’s expected for iPhone 17s. The overall design, though, doesn’t look that different.
Xiaomi might launch the 16 series in Q4 2024 after Qualcomm announces the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. The vanilla model will be a China and global model, while the Xiaomi 16 Pro will skip the international market entirely, according to this report.
