Yesterday, Xiaomi officially confirmed that it will unveil the Xiaomi 17 series later this month in China. Today, the brand has given the first official glimpse of its upcoming Xiaomi 17 Pro series through teasers on social media.
Xiaomi 17 Pro series to sport secondary rear display
Unlike the previous generation, the entire rear camera housing of the Xiaomi 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max is replaced with a functional secondary screen. This screen is expected to support notifications, time display, multitasking, AI interactions and cross-device functions, expanding on the small secondary display seen earlier in the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra.
The Pro series maintains Leica branding on the back, continuing the company’s partnership for imaging. The rear camera layout has three lenses, with two large sensors placed vertically within the module and a smaller third lens alongside the flash.
As the brand has already confirmed, the Xiaomi 17 Pro will be a compact flagship, whereas the Pro Max will be its larger version. The lineup will also include the standard Xiaomi 17.


According to reports, the Xiaomi 17 Pro will feature a 6.3-inch AMOLED panel with 1.5K resolution, 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate and a 6,300mAh battery supporting 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. The larger Xiaomi 17 Pro Max is said to carry a 6.8-inch 2K display with 94 percent screen-to-body ratio and a 7,500mAh battery.
All three models in the series, including the standard Xiaomi 17, will launch with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Rumors are rife that the Xiaomi 17 series will debut on Sept. 26 in China.
Competing Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered phones like the Honor Magic 8 series, OnePlus 15, iQOO 15, and Realme GT 8 Pro are expected to launch in October in China.
