Xiaomi rolls out the 17 Pro series, packing the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, massive 7000‑7500 mAh batteries, and Leica‑tuned cameras into a compact form. The 6.3‑inch Pro model weighs less than the iPhone 17 Pro Max while offering up to 16 GB RAM. A rear secondary display and advanced thermal management add fresh angles to the premium market, all at a price that aims to undercut Apple.
