Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro are reportedly coming much sooner than their predecessors | Infinium-tech

The Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro were launched last September, and in fact the entire T series is unveiled during that month every year. However, according to a new rumor coming from China, that’s about to change in 2026.

Apparently, Xiaomi will launch the 17T and 17T Pro four months earlier – so, presumably around May. If true, this would be a major shuffle in the company’s overall launch schedule.

The model number of the Xiaomi 17T is reportedly 2602DPT53G, while the model number of the Xiaomi 17T Pro is 2602EPTC0G. These have been given the codenames Chagall and Warhol respectively.

According to the same source, the 17T will be powered by the Dimensity 8500 SoC, while the 17T Pro will go with the Dimensity 9500. Their batteries will also be larger than what we’ve seen from the 15T and 15T Pro, while the camera upgrades won’t be huge.

Previous leaks claimed that the 17T will have the same camera setup as the 15T, but the battery capacity will increase to 6,500 mAh with 67W charging. Interestingly, a previous rumor said that the 17T would be powered by the Dimensity 9400 and not the 8500. So it looks like there’s still some disagreement between various sources regarding the specifications of the 17T series, which is even more reason to take everything you read with a pinch of salt.
