JAKARTA - The wave of leaks of flagships is coming again from Xiaomi. This time, the spotlight is on the Xiaomi 18 Pro which is said to bring significant improvements, especially in the rear screen feature and artificial intelligence (AI), making it one of the strongest candidates for the most innovative mobile phone this year.
According to the latest report, the Xiaomi 18 Pro will still retain the design of the secondary screen on the back like its predecessor. In the previous series, this screen was integrated into the camera module and became a special attraction among technology enthusiasts. Its function is not just a gimmick - from the viewfinder for selfies using the main camera, to the practical notification center.
But in the latest generation, Xiaomi seems to want to take this concept to the next level. The back screen is rumored to be enriched with AI-based features that allow quick access to various contextual functions without having to open the main screen.
Some of the features that are being developed include live translation, teleprompter support, to smarter interactive widgets. With this approach, Xiaomi wants to turn the back screen from just a unique feature into a really useful tool in daily activities.
"Xiaomi wants to make this back panel a productivity tool, not just a design experiment," the report said.
Not only in the screen sector, Xiaomi 18 Pro is also rumored to bring a big leap in the camera side. This device is rumored to carry two main cameras with a resolution of 200MP - a configuration that has the potential to set a new standard in mobile photography.
In terms of performance, this phone is said to be powered by the latest generation of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset, which promises significant improvements in efficiency and AI capabilities. Xiaomi is also rumored to have improved other sectors such as haptic motors, battery capacity, to audio quality.
Interestingly, Xiaomi is also exploring external camera accessories such as magnetic lenses. This step shows the company's ambition to build a more flexible and professional mobile photography ecosystem.
The Xiaomi 18 Pro is expected to launch first in China in September, before following to the global market in 2027. If all of these leaks are accurate, this device is not just an annual upgrade - but a signal that Xiaomi is seriously redefining the way we interact with smartphones.
