The wait for Xiaomi’s new flagships with a small display on the back is getting shorter. The manufacturer has confirmed that the Xiaomi 18 Pro series will be unveiled outside of China this November. Those who were looking forward to the phones have reason to rejoice, though the price might be a bit less pleasing. According to an earlier leak, even the smaller of the two will cost almost as much as the spring camera phone Xiaomi 17 Ultra in Europe.

Global premiere scheduled for November

Xiaomi’s official account posted a photo of the back of the 18 Pro model on X with a message that it would meet customers in November. However, it has not yet revealed the specific day, list of countries, or prices. This is a change from last year. When Xiaomi launched the Xiaomi 17 series last September, it only sent the base model to the global market; the Pro and Pro Max remained in China at that time.

In China, both phones were released on September 23. They offer a pair of 200Mpx Leica cameras, a small rear display, and a display that can hide content from side glances. The smaller model is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, while the Pro Max features the more powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6.

European prices are expected to start at €1,449

However, it is unlikely to be a cheap affair. From an October leak, we learned that all versions will come with 12 GB of RAM and will be quite expensive in Europe:

  • Xiaomi 18 Pro 12/256 GB: approximately 35,000 CZK (€1,449)
  • Xiaomi 18 Pro 12/512 GB: approximately 40,000 CZK (€1,649)
  • Xiaomi 18 Pro Max 12/256 GB: approximately 40,000 CZK (€1,649)
  • Xiaomi 18 Pro Max 12/512 GB: approximately 45,000 CZK (€1,849)

For comparison, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra started at €1,499 in Europe, which is only €50 higher than this year’s base 18 Pro. In our country, it was released for 35,990 CZK. The price increase is mainly due to rising memory prices.

Will you wait for the Xiaomi 18 Pro, or have the leaked prices deterred you?
