Xiaomi may be getting ready to bring its next flagship smartphones to India. The Xiaomi 17 Ultra and Xiaomi 17 have reportedly received approval from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), which usually indicates that a launch is being planned. Alongside the BIS listings, new leaks have started hinting at a possible India launch timeline for the two phones. The Xiaomi 17T is also expected to arrive later, following the launch of the Ultra and standard models. Also Read: Redmi Pad 2 Pro Price Leaked Ahead Of Launch On January 6: ALL Details Here

Earlier leaks had hinted at a January or February launch for India, but that now appears less likely. This possible schedule comes soon after a senior Xiaomi executive confirmed that the Xiaomi 17 Ultra will launch in select global markets in January 2026. If the India launch does happen in March, it would mean the phone arrives here a few weeks after its global debut. Also Read: OPPO Find N6 Foldable Specs Leak Ahead Of Possible Early 2026 Launch
So far, Xiaomi has not shared any official information about launching the Xiaomi 17 series in India.
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra was recently launched in China as the company’s top-end flagship. It features a large 6.9-inch LTPO AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
In China, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is available in multiple RAM and storage options, going up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. Pricing there places it firmly in the premium segment, suggesting it will be positioned as Xiaomi’s most expensive offering when it arrives in India.
The standard Xiaomi 17 sits below the Ultra model and features a smaller 6.3-inch OLED display with the same 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The Xiaomi 17 is expected to use the same Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset as the Ultra model, despite being positioned as the regular version. Details about the Xiaomi 17T remain limited for now, with leaks suggesting it will arrive later and sit at a lower price point within the lineup.
