The most notable announcement could be the Xiaomi 18 Pro series, which is tipped to arrive in India by December. The tipster claims that the series could arrive in India by December and feature a "tiny secondary display" on the rear.
For context, the Xiaomi 17 was launched in India in March 2026, and it was accompanied by the Ultra model. The company, however, did not introduce the Pro models in its flagship numbered lineup.
The Redmi 17 series, notably, is already available in select global markets, comprising the Redmi 17 5G and Redmi 17 4G. Both handsets sport 6.9-inch HD+ displays with a 120Hz refresh rate, 50-megapixel rear cameras and 7,500mAh batteries. The 5G model is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 chipset, while the 4G version uses the MediaTek Helio G91-Ultra.
Both Redmi 17 series handsets support 45W wired charging and run HyperOS 3 based on Android 16.
Meanwhile, previous reports suggest that the Redmi Note 17 lineup could include the Note 17 Pro and Note 17 Pro Max, alongside the standard model. Redmi Note 17 Pro Max could sit at the top of the global Note 17 lineup, with its base configuration tipped to include 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
