Xiaomi has given a date for the global launch of the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max: Tuesday 17 November, at an event in Paris starting at 13:00 UTC, which is 6 pm in Pakistan. A livestream will run on Xiaomi’s YouTube channel, and the company has said only the two Pro phones are coming.
The pair launched in China in late September. Xiaomi’s launch line for the global versions points to the rear display and the Leica camera system with two 200MP sensors, and promises “more surprises” at the event. The microsites list four colours: Black, Cosmic Blue, White and Velvet Red. Xiaomi has not said whether the Xiaomi Watch S5 41mm, so far a China-only product, will appear beside the phones.
Xiaomi’s launch page already shows what early buyers get. UK pre-orders include a 6A braided USB-C cable and a 90W charger, together worth £31.98, and Xiaomi France offers either a 100W or a 90W three-port charger. Elsewhere in Europe the choice is a Smart Band 11 Active, a Smart Band 9 Pro, or one of two Xiaomi speakers. The biggest gift is in Singapore, where buyers can pick the Robot Vacuum 6 Max or the 65-inch TV S Mini LED 2026, each priced at SGD 1,399.
There is no official global price yet. Recent leaks put the series at about €1,399 in the eurozone, and an earlier report said the global models would carry smaller batteries than the Chinese ones. Both points are unconfirmed until Xiaomi speaks on 17 November. The date follows Xiaomi’s announcement earlier this month that the series would go global in November.
