Xiaomi has officially unveiled a new Xiaomi 17 series flagship smartphones at its annual event.

The Xiaomi 17

The standard Xiaomi 17 is a game-changer for those who prefer a smaller phone without sacrificing power. It's a comfortable 6.3-inch flagship with a sleek body, weighing just 191g and measuring 8.06mm thin.

The most impressive feature is the massive 7,000mAh Xiaomi Surge Battery, the largest capacity in a compact 6.3-inch phone. It negates the need to carry around a power bank, but if you do need a top-up, the 100W wired fast charging will get you back to 100% in a flash.

The Xiaomi 17 features an innovative M10 Display Panel with a peak brightness of 3,500 nits. That super-high brightness means you won't have to squint; the screen remains perfectly clear and readable, even when you're caught in the midday glare.

Equipped with the Leica Summilux imaging system, the Xiaomi 17 promises professional-grade photos every time. Its main camera uses a 50MP sensor, ensuring clear, vivid images even in poor lighting. After dark, the advanced Leica lens and Master Portrait Mode guarantee the subjects in your pictures have natural skin tones and stunning detail.

The Xiaomi 17 Pro Series

The Xiaomi 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max is equipped with a Dynamic Back Display.

The back display can show real-time notifications for flight updates, takeaway delivery status, or even ride-hailing details, all while your main screen is closed. You can also use it to display customised AI wallpapers or even a fun virtual pet that interacts with your gestures.

The Pro series cameras feature next-generation LOFIC High Dynamic Technology, achieving an ultra-high 16.5EV sensor dynamic range. The 17 Pro Max gets an even more powerful 5x periscope telephoto lens, bringing distant objects right up close with incredible clarity. So, a simple photo looks as though a professional shot it.

Plus, you can use the dual screen to preview your high-quality selfie using the powerful main cameras.

The Pro series continues the theme of extreme battery life, with the Xiaomi 17 Pro packing a 6,300mAh battery and the Pro Max an incredible 7,500mAh battery. Both support 100W wired fast charging. The phones also feature industry-leading network coverage across over 210 countries, ensuring stable performance wherever you travel.

The Xiaomi 17 series will initially go on sale in China on 27 September 2025. While official Malaysian pricing has yet to be announced, here are the estimated prices converted from Chinese Yuan (RMB):
