The Xiaomi 18 Pro, expected to launch in China in September 2026, has had some of its features leaked ahead of its official release. Leaked images show a device with a much larger camera setup compared to the Xiaomi 17 Pro, featuring two 200-megapixel sensors. One would be the main camera with a large light-sensitive area, while the other would be positioned behind a periscope-style telephoto lens. The phone would also include an ultra-wide-angle camera with 50 megapixels. The leaks also mention a main sensor using SmartSens technology with LOFIC, which aims to improve image quality in both very bright and very dark areas.
A fourth button has appeared on the side of the Xiaomi 18 Pro, according to the leaked images. This button is said to be dedicated to artificial intelligence (AI) features, allowing users to quickly access AI functions without navigating through the HyperOS settings. It could also be used to control compatible Xiaomi smart devices and cars. However, the exact way the button works—whether through a quick press or a long press—remains unclear.
The technical specifications include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 processor built on 2 nm technology, a battery with a capacity of around 7,000 mAh, and wired charging at 100 W. The screen on the back of the phone, which was introduced with the Xiaomi 17 Pro, will return with new features. However, Xiaomi has not yet announced any details about its release in Europe. The official unveiling of the Xiaomi 18 Pro is expected toward the end of September 2026.
