The first months of the year have been devoted to the Redmi Note 15 series, but now it’s time to look at the premium tier. For days there have been rumors about the price and release date of Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra in Europe, and now comes what should be the definitive leak.
The well-known insider billbil-kun , one of the most reliable on the scene: no beating around the bush and no figures to round, but a series of straightforward leaks about what to expect.
Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra: differences with the Chinese models, price and release date in Europe
The big unknown has always been the date and time; even the insider aligns with previous rumors: the appointment would be set for the February 28, in a separate event from Barcelona’s MWC. Clearly Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra will be at the Catalan tech fair – from March 2 to 5 – but the actual presentation will occur earlier.
For the prices, here too we are in line with the good news leaked so far: Xiaomi would decide to keep the same figures as the previous generation, without increases (despite the memory crisis). For Europe we should have:
- Xiaomi 17 – Black, Venture Green, Ice Blue, Alpine Pink
- 12/256 GB: 999
- 12/512 GB: 1.099
- Xiaomi 17 Ultra – Black, White, Starry Green
- 16/512 GB: 1.499
- 16 GB/1 TB: 1.699
The two smartphones will be identical to the Chinese versions, except for the battery: Xiaomi 17 drops to 6,330 mAh (from 7,000 mAh) while the Ultra variant reaches 6,000 mAh (from 6,800 mAh).
