The Xiaomi 18 series is expected to launch later this year, with the lineup likely including a standard model and the Xiaomi 18 Pro. While official details remain limited, a new leak suggests that the upcoming devices could bring significant camera upgrades.

Dual 200MP Cameras Expected on Pro Model

According to tipster Digital Chat Station, an upcoming compact flagship smartphone with a 6.3-inch display is tipped to feature dual 200MP rear cameras. Although the leak does not directly name the Xiaomi 18 series, accompanying comments indicate that the device could be the Xiaomi 18 Pro.

The Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Pro also featured 6.3-inch displays, but only the Pro model included the higher-end camera hardware. The same approach is expected with the Xiaomi 18 Pro, which could receive the dual 200MP camera system. The Xiaomi 18 Pro Max may also include this upgrade.

Main and Periscope Camera Upgrades

The leak suggests that Xiaomi may equip the device with a 200MP main camera and a 200MP periscope telephoto camera. This setup would align with other upcoming flagship devices, including the rumored vivo X300 Ultra and Oppo Find X9s.

Meanwhile, the base Xiaomi 18 model has also been tipped to include a periscope telephoto camera, indicating improvements across the lineup.

Design and Display Expectations

The Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max are expected to retain the rear display and overall design language seen on their predecessors. The compact 6.3 inch display is also expected to continue, maintaining the form factor used in the previous generation.

The Xiaomi 18 series is expected to debut later this year, though Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the specifications or launch timeline.
