There has been considerable confusion surrounding the alleged model numbers of the upcoming Xiaomi 18 Pro series because of conflicting leaks and rumours. The ‘M154FF’ model number, which was previously associated with the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max, is now being pointed out to belong to the Xiaomi 18 Pro instead.
Adding to this, another Xiaomi device carrying the model number ‘M610BB’ has now appeared on the Geekbench database, and the latest rumours suggest that it could be the Chinese variant of the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max.
Here’s more about the listing.
Alleged Xiaomi 18 Pro Max (M610BB) – Geekbench Listing
As per the Geekbench listing, the Xiaomi ‘M610BB’ smartphone is powered by the Qualcomm SM8975 chipset, which is currently pointed out to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro.
The listed processor features an octa-core CPU configuration consisting of two cores clocked at 5.01GHz, three cores clocked at 4.03GHz, and three cores clocked at 3.74GHz. The device is also revealed to run on the Android 17 operating system and feature approximately 16GB of RAM.

Interestingly, the Geekbench listing mentions the Adreno 845 GPU instead of the Adreno 850 GPU revealed through the earlier ‘M154FF’ listing. This difference further adds uncertainty surrounding these alleged devices and their final hardware configurations.
While recent rumours associate the ‘M610BB’ model number with the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max and the earlier ‘M154FF’ model with the Xiaomi 18 Pro, Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the marketing names associated with either model number.
With different tipsters sharing conflicting information, it would be wise to take these claims with a pinch of salt. A similar confusion had also occurred with the earlier Geekbench listing, which was initially believed to belong to the Pro Max variant.
However, Xiaomi has now started teasing the Xiaomi 18 Pro series for its home market of China, and more official details about the upcoming devices are expected to be revealed soon.
Stay tuned for more updates!
