Xiaomi 17 Specifications
The Xiaomi 17 was originally launched in China back in September. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, it comes with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage. The handset runs Android 16 out of the box with HyperOS 3.0 skin on top. It has a 6.3-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2,656×1,220 pixels and supports up to a 120Hz refresh rate.
For imaging, it offers a Leica-tuned triple rear camera setup, which includes a primary Light Fusion 950 sensor of 50MP with an f/1.67 aperture and a focal length of 23mm, alongside a 50MP telephoto lens and a 50MP ultrawide-angle sensor. The phone also has a 50MP selfie camera sensor. Moreover, it gets a 7,000mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging support.
The Xiaomi 17 starts at CNY 4,499 (approximately Rs 56,000) for the base model with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. Given that, we expect the phone could be priced at around Rs 50,000 in the country. Since it is still early, this is only an estimate, so it’s best to take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more information sprouting about the Xiaomi 17.
