Xiaomi’s new 15 generation of phones is right around the corner. We already have a full specs sheet for both phones, as well as an announcement date set for October 20. We also have a pretty good idea what the Xiaomi 15 Pro is going to look like, thanks to some early renders.
Now, what seems to be a Xiaomi 15 Pro unit has been spotted in the wild with the same rear camera arrangements as the aforementioned renders. One could easily mistake said phone for the Xiaomi 14 Pro, but the distinctive part is the LED flash that is now outside the main camera island. Besides that, the overall design language seems unchanged from the Xiaomi 14 Pro. By the way, the person holding the phone in the phone is Xiaomi Group Vice President Wang Xiaoyan, so everything makes sense.

Speaking of the distinctive new camera module, most agree that the redesign was necessary to accommodate the new advanced periscope telephoto camera. It is said to be a 50 MP 5x telemacro unit with a 30cm minimum focus distance. The main Leica-branded cam is expected to be a 50 MP main unit with a 1/1.3″ sensor and f/1.4 aperture. There is also a 50MP ultrawide and a 32MP selfie snapper.
The Xiaomi 15 Pro is rumored to come with a 6.78-inch quad-curved AMOLED panel made by TCL, “2K” resolution, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The phone is powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC, paired with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. The battery has a 6,000 mAh capacity and supports 90W wired and 80W wireless charging, with 10W reverse wireless. The Xiaomi 15 Pro is expected to come in black, white, and silver. A special titanium edition will also be available. Xiaomi will probably offer five major OS updates for the device.
