Xiaomi 17 Pro specifications
The Indian version of the Xiaomi 17 Pro will, as per expectations, be a copy of the Chinese variant in design and performance. It is fitted with a 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED screen that has a 120 Hz adaptive refresh rate, 12-bit colour depth, and a max brightness of 3,500 nits. A unique 2.7-inch second rear screen lets users use the primary rear camera to take selfies, control music, or view notifications — adding funk as well as utility.
The hardware consists of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, which is accompanied by up to 16GB LPDDR5x RAM and 1TB UFS storage. The phone is powered under the hood by this configuration and is backed by a 6,300mAh battery that can charge at 100W wired, 50W wireless, and 22.5W reverse charging. This makes it one of the fastest-charging flagships in the class.
On the camera side, Xiaomi continues to partner with Leica, providing a quad-camera arrangement—a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide, a 50MP 5x periscope telephoto lens, and a ToF depth sensor. For selfies, there’s a 50MP front camera.
