Xiaomi 17 Pro And Pro Max Specifications

Xiaomi 17 Pro And Pro Max : So, I’ve been testing Xiaomi’s nextG flagship phone, and you know, sometimes one phone company will copy another one, but change it up a little bit. Well, I’ve never seen a company change less than Xiaomi has here. They’ve adjusted the numbering on their phones to call them the 17s. They’ve shifted their naming structure to Pro and Pro Max. They’ve announced the phones a month early in September, all while featuring a very familiar-looking camera plateau design.

Now, clearly, this is a marketing trick. This is all to make absolute sure that when you think about the iPhone 17 Pros that you also think and maybe even come across Xiaomi.

Unboxing Experience

If you bought a Xiaomi 17 Pro And Pro Max, this is what you’d get:

A super tall box
100W charger included
USB-C cable
Case and frosted hard shell

The Pro Max has the same premium packaging. Already, this feels high-tier compared to Apple.

Design & Display

The weird thing about this phone is it looks almost intentionally like a knockoff iPhone with the naming and the design. The UI even has iOS-style icons and a control center. But when you use it, it doesn’t feel like a knockoff:

Bright, high-end display
Ultra-thin borders
Excellent haptics
Extremely satisfying typing/navigation

And the rear display? A full second screen with the same specs as the front one:

3000+ nits brightness
1–120Hz refresh rate
Full touch responsiveness
Gorilla Glass protection
