Xiaomi 18 Pro India Launch: What We Know So Far
Xiaomi has launched the Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max in China, but the company’s India lineup could be different. According to a recent report, Xiaomi may bring only the Xiaomi 18 Pro to India this year, while the Xiaomi 18T could arrive early next year.
Xiaomi 18 Pro India Launch
The Xiaomi 18 Pro is reportedly expected to launch in India around December 2026. Xiaomi India has already teased the 18 Pro, although the company has not yet announced its exact India launch date or price.
The regular Xiaomi 18 and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max are currently not expected to launch in India, according to the report. In China, however, Xiaomi has launched both the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max.
Xiaomi 18 Pro Specifications
The Xiaomi 18 Pro comes with a 6.4-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It also features a 2.7-inch secondary AMOLED display on the rear, which supports a 120Hz refresh rate.
Under the hood, the phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset. The China model comes with up to 16GB RAM and up to 1TB storage.
For photography, the Xiaomi 18 Pro features a Leica-branded camera setup. It includes a 200MP primary camera with OIS, a 200MP periscope telephoto camera with OIS and 3.2x optical zoom, and a 50MP ultrawide camera. A 50MP front camera is also included.
The China variant packs a large 7,000mAh battery with support for 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. However, the global version is reportedly expected to feature a 6,000mAh battery.
