Xiaomi 15S Pro Will Leave Snapdragon, Come With SoC Xiaomi Surge

JAKARTA - Xiaomi continues to innovate in the development of their chipsets. Although chipsets launched so far are only to improve user experience with additional optimization, the company has yet to produce a fully-made "system-on-chip" (SoC). However, a recent leak reveals that the upcoming Xiaomi 15S Pro may be one of the first devices to use the Xiaomi Surge SoC, ruling out the use of Snapdragon or MediaTek.

According to a post on China's microblogging platform, Xiaomi is preparing a series of Xiaomi 15S smartphones that will be launched soon. The post reveals that the Xiaomi 15S Pro will have hardware specifications very similar to the Xiaomi 15 Pro, although with a new design.

What's interesting is that the Xiaomi 15S Pro will reportedly be driven by the SoC Xiaomi Surge self-developed by the company. If this information is correct, this device will likely not use the chipset of Qualcomm Snapdragon or MediaTek as it usually uses on Xiaomi flagship smartphones. This marks a major step for Xiaomi, which has been relying on Snapdragon for flagship and MediaTek models for their flagship killer models.

Information about the current Xiaomi 15S Pro is very limited and there has been no official confirmation from Xiaomi. In fact, the Xiaomi 15 series itself has not been officially launched, so details regarding the Xiaomi 15S Pro are still in the form of initial speculation. However, these rumors provide indications that Xiaomi may be preparing to overhaul their chipset strategy by introducing their own SoC technology.

If it is true that Xiaomi is turning to SoC Surge, this will be an important strategic step for companies in the smartphone industry, given the intense competition and growing demands of technology. It will be interesting to see how Xiaomi Surge's SoC performs in the face of competition from other chipsets and how this will affect Xiaomi's position in the global smartphone market.
