While the Xiaomi 17 series of flagship smartphones finally got an official global launch date, fresh report has revealed more details of its next-gen budget flagship phones. The Xiaomi 17T lineup might be making its debut months ahead of schedule, which could mean an earlier global release as well.

Early Certifications of the Xiaomi 17T is The First Clue

The earliest clue came via official regulatory filings and global SKU listings that reference new Xiaomi devices earlier than usual in the year. Xiaomi’s T-series usually arrive in the second half of the year, but these sightings have hinted at the Xiaomi 17T and Xiaomi 17T Pro models launching much earlier. So instead of an expected September 2026 release, the new budget flagships might drop sometime around May 2026.

Known tipster Experience More backs this claim by stating that the Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro are launching four months ahead of the previous generation. This also means that the wider overseas availability should also be quicker than the previous generation. To recall, the Xiaomi 17T was recently spotted on the HyperOS codebase, which confirmed a sizeable jump in battery capacity; going from 5,500mAh on its predecessor, to a 6,500mAh cell.

Although the charging speeds remains at 67W. Furthermore, the Xiaomi 17T will reportedly pack a triple camera setup with a OmniVision OV50E main camera, along with a OmniVision OV13B ultra wide angle lens, and a Samsung ISOCELL JN5 telephoto shooter. Under the hood, this model could be equipped with MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500s chipset. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation at this moment, so take this report with a pinch of salt.
