Xiaomi 17 series launch has been confirmed to take place later this month, and it should likely be soon after Qualcomm announces its Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. Xiaomi is skipping the number 16 this year for the naming of its flagship lineup of smartphones, instead calling them Xiaomi 17 series, lining up with the iPhone 17 series. Further, the models will be called Xiaomi 17, Xiaomi 17 Pro, and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, also identical to the iPhone 17 lineup. Aside from the confirmation of the Xiaomi 17 series launch, the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max’s design was also revealed by the Chinese smartphone maker. The Xiaomi 17 Pro is expected to feature a 6.3-inch LTPO display with a 120Hz Refresh Rate and ultra-thin 1.1mm bezels.
