Xiaomi’s latest flagship phones, the Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra, will finally be unveiled to the global stage.
The Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra will be launched in Barcelona, Spain, but a couple of days ahead of Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2026. The event will happen on February 28 at 2 PM. That will be 9 PM here in the Philippines.
They will also join the new Redmi Buds 8 Pro that offers up to 55dB of smart active noise cancellation and the sleek Xiaomi Tag that only weighs 10g.
Xiaomi will also launch the Xiaomi UltraThin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 which offers 15W charging speeds. It only weighs 98g and is 6mm thin.
For a quick recap, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra was already launched in China months ago. It carries pixel-dense, Leica- branded cameras. It also has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, large 6.9-inch LTPO AMOLED screen, 6,800mAh battery, and 90W wired nad 50W wireless charging.
The Xiaomi 17 was introduced in September 2025 with the same processor, but with a smaller 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED screen. It has four 50-megapixel cameras, an enormous 7,000mAh battery, and 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.
We’ll see if the Chinese specs match those of the global models. So stay tuned.
