Xiaomi has launched the Xiaomi 17 series in the global market. For now, let’s focus on the vanilla Xiaomi 17.
The Xiaomi 17 Global variant is essentially the same as the Chinese model that already came out in September last year. Only this time, the 7,000mAh battery was downgraded to a 6,330mAh.
Everything else is the same. It still has a compact 6.3-inch 2.5K LTPO AMOLED screen with a 3500-nit peak brightness and 120Hz adaptive refresh rate.
It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite Gen 5 processor, with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.
We then have four 50-megapixel cameras, led by the Light Hunter 950 main sensor and a periscope lens.
It ships with Android 16-based HyperOS 3 with extended software support: 5 OS upgrades and 6 years of security patches.
Pricing and availability of the Xiaomi 17 in the Philippines shall be announced very soon, so stay tuned for that.
