Xiaomi has announced that the Xiaomi 18 Pro series will make its global debut this month. Here’s what has been revealed so far about the Xiaomi 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max, and what remains to be confirmed before they hit store shelves.

When is it coming?

The Xiaomi 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max were unveiled in China on September 23. The company later confirmed that the global debut would take place “later this month,” meaning sometime in November. No exact date has been announced, nor has the list of markets that will get them first.

According to reports, Europe is among the regions in the first wave. Pricing and availability in Greece will be announced at the official launch.

Leica camera: 200MP main and telephoto lenses

The 18 Pro series is built around a triple-camera system bearing the Leica name. The 200MP main camera with optical image stabilization is ideal for everyday shots and nighttime photography, while the 200MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.2x optical zoom lets you capture portraits and distant details without moving closer to your subject.

The 50MP ultra-wide camera fits entire buildings and group photos into a single frame, while the 50MP selfie camera offers plenty of resolution for video calls and close-up portraits.

LTPO AMOLED display and secondary rear display

The Xiaomi 18 Pro has an approximately 6.4-inch LTPO AMOLED display, while the 18 Pro Max comes with a 6.9-inch display. Both feature a high refresh rate (sources report between 120 and 144 Hz). LTPO technology adjusts the refresh rate to match the content, keeping scrolling smooth while conserving battery life.

On the back, inside the camera module, there is a 2.7-inch AMOLED secondary display. It lets you check the time and notifications without turning your phone around, and according to reports, it can also be used with more apps and AI features.

Processor and software

The series is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, built on a 2nm process, with the Pro Max featuring its higher-tier variant. Available configurations offer up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, providing plenty of space for running multiple apps at once and storing thousands of photos and 4K videos on the device.

The software is Xiaomi’s HyperOS 4, and the devices are IP68-rated for water and dust resistance.

Battery: what changes in the international version

In China, the Xiaomi 18 Pro has a 7,000mAh battery, while the 18 Pro Max has an 8,500mAh battery. Charging reaches 100W wired and 50W wireless.

For the global version, European retailer listings mention lower capacities: 6,000mAh for the Pro and 7,050mAh for the Pro Max. This information is unofficial and has not been confirmed by Xiaomi, and regional regulations appear to play a role in the difference. The listings also indicate that most of the other specifications remain the same as those of the Chinese models.

Colors

Listings for the global version show three color options for both models: Black, White, and Velvet Red. In China, the Starry Blue and Ice Peach Pink colors are also available, as well as a special edition with a transparent red back that reveals the internal components. It has not been confirmed whether these will be available outside China.

What Remains to Be Confirmed

Before the official launch, the exact date, the markets where the devices will be available, the final battery capacities, memory configurations and colors, and the price in Greece remain unknown. Until then, you can browse mobile phones on Skroutz and compare the current options.
