Although we are hearing rumors of a fifth member of the Xiaomi 17 series in China, the company has yet to announce any Xiaomi 17 models globally. Still, the picture outside China is starting to come together.
Certifications have already hinted at an international rollout, and now a fresh set of leaks adds more clarity around colors, storage options, pricing, and even battery differences.
According to a leak shared by tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore, Xiaomi is preparing to launch the Xiaomi 17 series globally, starting with the Xiaomi 17 and the higher-end Xiaomi 17 Ultra.
The standard Xiaomi 17 5G is expected to come in two storage variants: 12GB of RAM paired with either 256GB or 512GB of storage. Color options are said to include Black, Blue, and Green. Meanwhile, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra 5G appears to target power users, with 16GB of RAM and storage options of 512GB or 1TB, available in Black, White, and Green.
Xiaomi 17 price leaks for the Eurozone
As for the price, a German retailer listing (spotted by Notebookcheck) reveals the Xiaomi 17 could retail at €1,099 for the 512GB variant. However, considering Ambhore’s leak, 256GB is the base for Xiaomi 17. As a result, we can expect a lower starting price, maybe around €999.
The retailer listing also reveals some hardware compromises for global buyers. While the Xiaomi 17 sold in China is expected to feature a massive 7,000mAh battery, the global version reportedly comes with a smaller 6,330mAh battery. That’s still a notable 20 percent increase over the 5,240mAh battery found in the previous global model, and it will support 100W fast charging.
As for timing, Xiaomi is expected to begin selling the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra globally after MWC 2026 wraps up in March.

OnePlus and Google approach flagship smartphones from completely different philosophies. One chases raw power, speed, and cutting-edge hardware, while the other focuses on smart software, photography, and long-term reliability. The OnePlus 15 and Pixel 10 represent this contrast perfectly, making this comparison less about specs and more about which flagship experience actually fits modern users better.
OnePlus 15 delivers a bold, performance-driven design that feels premium and purpose-built. Its materials and finish give it a confident, flagship presence that appeals to power users. The Pixel 10 opts for a cleaner, more minimal look that prioritizes comfort and familiarity. It feels refined rather than flashy, making it easy to use daily. While both phones are well-built, the OnePlus feels more ambitious, whereas the Pixel focuses on subtle polish. One clearly targets enthusiasts, the other, everyday users.
Display Quality
OnePlus 15 offers a smoother, more immersive display with richer colors and a noticeably fluid feel, especially during gaming and scrolling. The Pixel 10 emphasizes brightness and color accuracy, performing well outdoors and during long viewing sessions. While the Pixel display is dependable and balanced, the OnePlus panel feels more exciting and visually engaging.
Verdict
For users who value visual impact and smoothness, OnePlus 15 delivers a more impressive design and display experience.
2. Specifications
Performance
OnePlus 15 is built for speed, handling demanding tasks and multitasking with ease. It feels consistently fast and responsive, especially under heavy use.

Selfie Camera
Selfies from the OnePlus 15 are sharp and confident, while the Pixel 10 delivers more natural skin tones and balanced exposure. The Pixel’s front camera feels more dependable for everyday use.
Verdict
Pixel 10 remains the better choice for photography consistency, but OnePlus 15 offers more versatility and creative freedom.
4. Pricing
OnePlus 15 is priced at around $900, placing it firmly in the premium flagship category. The Pixel 10 costs approximately $800, making it more accessible while still offering a polished experience.
Is the Price Justified?

Xiaomi has launched the Redmi Buds 8 Pro TWS earbuds in China. The new earbuds feature a coaxial triple-driver setup and dual DACs, aiming to deliver high-fidelity audio at an affordable price of 399 yuan ($57).
Redmi Buds 8 Pro Specifications
Each earbud houses an 11mm titanium-coated dynamic driver for bass and mids, along with two 6.7mm micro piezoelectric ceramic drivers for handling high frequencies. The system uses independent frequency crossover and dual DACs to drive high and low frequencies separately. The earbuds support the MIHC audio codec developed by Xiaomi and are compatible with LHDC-V5. They also carry Hi-Res Wireless Audio certification.
The Buds 8 Pro features Xiaomi’s Deep Space Noise Cancellation 3.0 system, which supports up to 55dB of noise reduction across an ultra-wide 5kHz range. The system samples environmental noise and ear-fit conditions 32,000 times per second to adapt in real time, while offering 20 ANC levels, intelligent scene detection, personalized noise-cancellation profiles, and single-ear operation.
The earbuds support spatial audio with dynamic head tracking using a six-axis gyroscope. Xiaomi has integrated its own spatial audio rendering engine alongside Dolby Audio support. However, Dolby’s spatial audio mode does not support head tracking.

Performance
Under the hood, the Redmi Turbo 5 Max is one of the first smartphones to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500s chipset. This is basically cutdown version of the flagship Dimensity 9500, with performance matching the older Dimensity 9400. It is coupled with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 5.1 storage. With these specs, the budget flagship can easily handle demanding games and multitasking without breaking a sweat.

The headlining feature of the Redmi Turbo 5 Max is undoubtedly its gigantic 9,000mAh battery pack. This is one of the largest batteries ever seen in any Redmi phone. You also get 100W wired fast charging support along with 27W wired reverse charging. With such a large capacity, this phone can basically double as a power bank to charge your other gadgets. Xiaomi is claiming up to 11 hours and 10 minutes of battery life, which is likely indicating the screen n time.
Camera System
For photography, this affordable flagship packs a 50MP Light Fusion 600 main shooter, which has a 1/1.95-inch sensor size. It is paired with an 8MP ultra wide angle lens. The primary sensor includes features like optical image stabilization (OIS) and electronic image stabilization (EIS). Both cameras offer 4K60fps video recording as well.
Pricing & Availability
The Redmi Turbo 5 Max is already on sale in China with several configuration options, so here are the pricing details:
12GB + 256GB – 2499 Yuan (roughly 359 US Dollars)

16GB + 512GB – 3099 Yuan (roughly 445 US Dollars)
Xiaomi has yet to confirm the international availability of this device, but the Turbo lineup could debut in overseas markets like India under the POCO branding.
Xiaomi held an event today to announce new Redmi products. The highlight is the new Redmi Turbo 5 Max; however, the company also announced a more affordable (yet powerful) Redmi Turbo 5. We will talk about the latter in this article.
Redmi Turbo 5 Specifications
The Turbo 5 is the first to debut MediaTek’s new Dimensity 8500 chip. Built on a 4nm process, the chip is paired with LPDDR5 memory and UFS 4.1 storage. To keep thermals under control, the phone uses the same 3D ice-sealed circulating cold pump cooling system found in Xiaomi’s flagship phones.
The phone also has a new “Rampage Engine” to better tune CPU, GPU, and even DDR frequencies for more stable performance during heavy use.
Redmi has packed in a 7,560mAh battery to keep things running, which supports 100W wired and 27W wireless charging.
On the front, you get a 6.59-inch AMOLED display equally as good as premium flagships. Xiaomi says the phone uses its Super Sunlight Screen, built with M10 luminescent material and capable of reaching a peak brightness of 3,500 nits. It also supports Xiaomi’s eye protection features that reduce eye strain during long viewing sessions.
Design-wise, the Redmi Turbo 5 has a more refined look than earlier Turbo models. It has a metal frame, glass back with a clean vertical camera module, narrow bezels, and large, rounded corners. The phone comes in Shadow Black, Light Sea Green, and Auspicious Cloud White.
Ingress protection includes IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K water and dust resistance. The Turbo 5 also features kilometer-level wireless connectivity, improved Apple device compatibility, and support for file transfer and notification sharing across platforms.
The Turbo 5 is not really a camera phone, thus it only features a 50MP main and an 8MP ultrawide on the back, and a 20MP lens for selfies.
Redmi Turbo 5 Price and Availability
Pricing for the Turbo 5 starts at 1,999 yuan (~ $287) for the base 12/256GB model, and goes up to 2,599 yuan (~ $375). Sales begin immediately in the mainland.

Tesla will officially stop producing the Model S and Model X by the end of Q2 2026. CEO Elon Musk confirmed the decision during the company’s Q4 2025 earnings call, saying it was time to bring both programs to an end. Launched in 2012 and 2015, these vehicles were Tesla’s first premium models and played a major role in proving that electric cars could be desirable, fast, and luxurious.
Falling Demand and Aging Platforms
Sales of the Model S and X have been declining for years. By 2025, estimated deliveries dropped to around 30,000 units globally, far below Fremont’s 100,000-unit capacity. The models also faced strong competition from newer rivals like the Lucid Air and Rivian R1S. A minor refresh in 2025, paired with a price increase, failed to revive interest, making the discontinuation feel inevitable.
Fremont Factory Gets a New Role
Tesla’s Fremont factory will no longer focus on these low-volume premium cars. Instead, the production lines will be converted for advanced manufacturing projects, most notably Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus. This marks a clear shift in strategy away from legacy models toward future technologies.
Optimus and Tesla’s Bigger Bet
Optimus has been in development for years and is now a top priority. Tesla plans to begin production before the end of 2026, with possible public sales in 2027. Musk believes Optimus could become Tesla’s most important product, supported by major investments in AI and xAI.
The Future of Tesla
This move shows that Elon Musk believes Tesla has already achieved its original EV goal. Electric cars are now widely accepted, and they no longer need to be strongly pushed or explained to the public. Premium models like the Model S and X no longer offer enough growth to justify Tesla’s time and money.
Musk clearly sees a bigger opportunity elsewhere. By shifting focus to Optimus, AI, and autonomy, Tesla is moving away from being just a car company. The future Tesla looks more like an AI and robotics company, using cars maybe to fund a much larger vision where intelligent machines play a central role in everyday work and life.
