In September, Xiaomi may unveil the Xiaomi 18 series of flagship phones in China. Last year’s Xiaomi 17 packed a 6.3-inch display, but its successor is said to feature a slightly larger display of around 6.4 inches. It is speculated that the Xiaomi 18 Pro will also come equipped with the same-sized display but will pack better cameras than the standard Xiaomi 18. Now, in a new Weibo post, tipster Digital Chat Station has seemingly shared more details about what appears to be the Pro edition.

Xiaomi 18 Pro key details tipped

As per the leak, the Xiaomi 18 Pro may bring several flagship-grade upgrades despite not featuring the same display technology as its larger sibling, which appears to be the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max. The tipster claims the phone will offer the same ultra-clear display and ultra-narrow, symmetrical bezels. For security, it will have an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor.

The device will be powered by a 2nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6-series flagship chipset and a larger battery, with support for 100W wired and wireless charging. It will feature a dual 200-megapixel camera system, with at least one camera using an ultra-large image sensor. It will have a minimalist design and offer top-tier water resistance.

According to previous reports, the Xiaomi 18, 18 Pro, and 18 Pro Max will feature triple rear cameras, with the Pro models offering dual 200-megapixel cameras, while the standard model will have a single 200-megapixel camera. Therefore, it appears the above leak pertains to the Xiaomi 18 Pro.

The Xiaomi 18 Pro’s camera setup is said to include a 200-megapixel SmartSens primary camera equipped with LOFIC technology. It could be joined by a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

While the tipster has not mentioned the battery size in today’s leak, the device has previously been said to house a battery of around 7,000mAh. Some reports have also revealed that it will retain the rear display, but it will be more AI-driven and versatile than before. Additionally, the front display may arrive with a Samsung-like Privacy Display feature.

It is also being said that the Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max may launch in September. Last year, Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi 17 Ultra in December. Therefore, it is likely that the Xiaomi 18 Ultra’s December 2026 launch could be joined by the standard Xiaomi 18.
