According to leakster Yogesh Brar, Xiaomi will launch two of its 17-series flagships on the global market around MWC time (March 2-5) – Europe should get them just before, while the Indian launch is reportedly set for early March.
The vanilla Xiaomi 17 and the Xiaomi 17 Ultra flagship (including the Leica Edition) are the ones that will be available globally, while the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max will stay in China.
Xiaomi 17
It’s not like you haven’t seen them before, but here are leaked images of the Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra for the global market. If nothing else, they show the colorways we can expect.
Starting with the Xiaomi 17, the petite phone is coming in Blue, Green and Black. The Green color is new as it wasn’t available in China. China did get a Pink model, which wasn’t invited to the global party, it seems.
Xiaomi 17 color options
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra will be available in Starry Green, White and Black. The Chinese model did have a Green option already, as well as Purple. The Leica Edition color options are not pictured – they have exclusive colors, Black and Off White.
Xiaomi 17 Ultra color options
One important thing to note is that the global Xiaomi 17 Ultra is getting a haircut on battery capacity – it will be 6,000mAh instead of 6,800mAh like on the Chinese model.
This won’t result in a thinner phone, though, as the global model will reportedly measure the same 8.29mm as the Chinese one. Presumably, the weight is the same too (i.e. 223g). Note that the Leica Edition is a bit thicker at 8.46mm and heavier (230g).
Xiaomi 17 Ultra
A previous leak showed that the Xiaomi 17 with 512GB storage will cost €1,100 – this, presumably, means €1,000 for the 256GB base model. The Xiaomi 17 Ultra 512GB will be €1,500. These are the same prices as the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Ultra (which, coincidentally, launched globally at MWC 2025).
