Xiaomi suddenly announces: October 13, global premiere! New product officially released!
Xiaomi's brand-new product, the Xiaomi 15 series, has recently caused a stir! Since the CEO Lu Weibing announced in early this year that he would also serve as the general manager of Xiaomi brand, Xiaomi 15 series has had a relatively calm response since the debut of Xiaomi 14 Ultra. As the flagship digital series of Xiaomi for the year, the Xiaomi 15 series carries high expectations within Xiaomi. On October 13th, it was announced that Lu Weibing had shared a message stating "The new phone is really easy to use" regarding this completely new Xiaomi 15 series product, officially kickstarting the promotion of the Xiaomi 15 series. This indicates that the Xiaomi 15 series is already in production and will feature the latest Snapdragon chipset globally upon launch. The internal executive team has already started using this new phone, and it is almost ready to be officially presented at the launch event!
The release date of the Xiaomi 15 series is expected to be between October 22nd and 24th, possibly being launched simultaneously with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 processor. Rumors suggest that the Xiaomi 15 series will include four different models: Xiaomi 15, Xiaomi 15 Pro, Xiaomi 15 Pro Titanium Satellite Communication Edition, and Xiaomi 15 Ultra, each with different positioning. The Ultra version is rumored to be postponed and will meet everyone in early 2025. Compared to the flagship models from other manufacturers, the Xiaomi 15 series seems to be having a relatively late warm-up. When passing by the subway station, you can already see promotional posters for the vivo X200 series, and reservations for the OPPO Find X8 series have already begun. The warm-up for the Xiaomi 15 started with Lu Weibing saying "The new phone is really easy to use." The internal code name for the Xiaomi 9 was "Battle Angel," and now the predicted slogan for the Xiaomi 15 is "Xiaomi 15, really easy to use."
Xiaomi executive Wang Teng has tough words for the Xiaomi 15 series, with the Redmi K80 under his leadership preparing to compete against a variety of flagship new devices, including Xiaomi's own Xiaomi 15. According to industry insiders, a wave of new models powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is expected to arrive at the end of October. Apart from the Xiaomi 15, the OnePlus 13, iQOO 13 are scheduled for release at the end of October, while the Realme GT 7 Pro, Honor Magic 7, and Huawei Mate 70 are scheduled for early November. Due to the overall cost increase of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, the prices of the new devices may be higher. Furthermore, the iQOO 13, Xiaomi 15 Pro, OnePlus 13, and other new devices are preparing to popularize 2K screens, which will naturally increase the costs. As early as when Lei Jun released the Xiaomi 14, it was said that the starting price of the Xiaomi 15 would not be less than 3999 yuan. Perhaps Wang Teng's remarks are not just idle talk. As a flagship device with excellent cost performance, the Redmi K80 will naturally have a certain level of competitiveness.
In the past, the Xiaomi 11 Pro had a name change for the processor, and the flash was placed outside the deco; now the processor of the 15 (Pro) has been renamed, and the flash is also outside the deco. The module's frame area has special gloss treatment marks, and the back cover and flash have a volcano-like transition feeling. In addition, the new machine may use a new glass fiber material back shell, following the basic colors of silver gray, white, and black, and continuing the use of titanium metal material from the satellite communication version. From the photos of Xiaoyan, the latest phone comes with a phone case, the flash is outside the case, so it is very likely the Xiaomi 15.
The Xiaomi 15 series compared to the previous two generations of models, there is no obvious difference in appearance, and the thickness and weight of the body may be lower. The front screen of the Xiaomi 15 is made of the new C9 board provided by TCL's Huaxing Optoelectronics, with a 32-megapixel front camera and lower screen ratio. It features a 6.78-inch 2K resolution screen with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, and adopts the latest ultrasonic under-screen fingerprint unlocking technology, with the whole machine dustproof and waterproof rated as IP68/IP69. The Xiaomi 15 Pro Titanium Satellite Communication version supports satellite connectivity and uses the latest satellite technology. It is pre-installed with Xiaomi's customized Surge OS 2.0 system based on Android 15. The Xiaomi 15 Pro is expected to have a built-in 6000mAh large capacity battery, supporting 90W wired charging, 80W wireless charging, and 10W reverse wireless charging.
The neighboring companies are heavily promoting and warming up their products, while Xiaomi just posted: "New phone, really easy to use." The release date of the Xiaomi 15 series is expected to be the first launch in China in October, with a global release in early 2025. The Xiaomi 15 series has now started offline blind orders and may be officially unveiled on October 28th. What are your expectations for the Xiaomi 15 series?
