The Xiaomi 18 Pro smartphone has now been tipped to launch in India next month, instead of November. The same tipster has also suggested that the Xiaomi 18T is coming soon to the Indian market, and a few of its expected key specs and its model number have been revealed.
Here’s more about the update.
Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18T – India Launch Details and Expected Specs
As per the update shared by tipster Gadgetsdata on X, the Xiaomi 18T smartphone with the Indian model number of ‘27022PT99I’ is suggested to use the MediaTek Dimensity 8600 chip, coupled with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. A flat LTPS OLED display screen has also been tipped for the device, which is said to support 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz or 185Hz refresh rate.
Speaking more, the tipster mentions a Leica triple rear camera system comprising a 200MP main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide camera likely using the JN5 sensor, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera, along with a 32MP selfie camera. The device is also suggested to run on the Android 17 operating system. An IP69-rated body, USB 2.0, and an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner have been tipped too.
Coming to the Xiaomi 18 Pro, its Indian launch is said to take place next month in December 2026, unlike its global debut, which has been hinted via a recent teaser to take place on 17 November 2026. This could also explain why no microsites for the device are currently live on Amazon India or Flipkart. However, its Indian launch date is yet to be officially confirmed.
About the Xiaomi 18T’s launch, the tipster has not shared an exact timeline. Considering that the Xiaomi 17T was launched in June, we may see its successor arriving in June next year as well. To note, this is only our speculation and has not been suggested by the tipster or confirmed by the brand. The device is also yet to make its appearance on India’s BIS database, so we will have to wait for further updates.
Stay tuned for more updates.
