Xiaomi 17T series launching on May 28, coming soon to India

Xiaomi has officially announced the global launch of the Xiaomi 17T series. Ahead of the debut, the company has already started teasing the lineup in India to build anticipation around the upcoming smartphones. The lineup is expected to include two models — the Xiaomi 17T and Xiaomi 17T Pro — both of which are scheduled to launch globally on May 28. However, Xiaomi has yet to confirm an official India launch date for the devices. The upcoming smartphones will succeed the Xiaomi 15T series that launched last year and are expected to sit in the company’s sub-flagship segment.

It also remains unclear whether Xiaomi plans to bring both models to India. According to tipster Ahsan, the Xiaomi 17T Pro may skip the Indian market altogether.
