The launch of Xiaomi’s new flagship phones is nearly here. Recently, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra was spotted on Geekbench, showing its global model number. Sadly, this version might only come with a 6,000 mAh battery, unlike the 6,800 mAh battery found in the Chinese version.
New Details from Thailand
Evan Blass has found mentions of three Xiaomi flagship models that are set for global release, listed on Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC). The Xiaomi 17 Ultra is among them, again identified by its model number 2512BPNDAG. Moreover, the company has also registered the Xiaomi 17 with the NBTC, which serves as a more compact flagship option, similar to what was done last year with the Xiaomi 15 Ultra and the Xiaomi 15 ($837 currently on Amazon).
Exciting Additions
In addition, the NBTC confirms that Xiaomi is preparing to launch the ‘Leica Leitzphone powered by Xiaomi.’ This name first emerged in IMEI databases last month, and it refers to the Xiaomi 17 Ultra in China, branded as Leica. You can check our launch articles for a comparison of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra and its ‘by Leica’ version. At this point, it’s pretty clear that the Xiaomi 17 Pro and the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max are unlikely to see a global launch.
