Xiaomi quietly hikes prices across its Redmi Book Pro and Xiaomi Book Pro laptop lineups

Xiaomi has quietly implemented a noticeable price increase in China across a wide swath of its laptop portfolio. According to recent market observations first flagged by local tech bloggers and subsequently verified by outlets like ITHome, the company has raised the retail prices of several Redmi Book Pro and Xiaomi Book Pro models by anywhere from 400 to 700 yuan ($60-$104) overnight.

The adjustments impact both current and upcoming hardware generations. The comprehensive list of affected devices includes the Redmi Book Pro 14 and 16 (both 2025 and 2026 editions), the standard Redmi Book 14 and 16 for 2026, and the Xiaomi Book Pro 14. These price shifts appear to be immediate and are already reflected across major Chinese e-commerce platforms.

Looking at the exact figures, the price hikes are quite distinct for a market segment that usually relies on aggressive pricing. The Redmi Book Pro 14 2025, which was selling for 6,799 yuan ($1,014) just days ago on September 15th, is now listed at 7,299 yuan ($1,088). Its larger sibling, the Redmi Book Pro 16 2025, saw the steepest jump of the group, moving from 4,699 yuan ($700) to 5,399 yuan ($805), a full 700 yuan ($60) increase.

The newer 2026 models are seeing similar markups. The Redmi Book Pro 16 2026 climbed from 7,399 yuan ($1,103) to 7,899 yuan ($1,177), while the 14-inch variant moved from 7,199 yuan ($1,073) to 7,699 yuan ($1,148).

Xiaomi has not yet released an official statement explaining the reasoning behind these sudden price adjustments. However, across-the-board price hikes in the consumer PC market are typically tied to fluctuating component costs, particularly regarding memory, storage, and display panels, or broader supply chain logistics.
