Xiaomi has officially confirmed the India launch of its flagship smartphone lineup – Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra set for March 11, 2026. Along with the Xiaomi 17 Series smartphone, Xiaomi will also debut its latest Xiaomi Pad 8 tablet.
The announcement follows the devices’ global debut at MWC 2026 earlier today. As with previous flagship launches, Xiaomi will also introduce the Photography Kit for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra in India, aimed at photography enthusiasts.
The Xiaomi 17 is expected to come in a 12GB RAM + 512GB storage variant, while the Xiaomi 17 Ultra may come in a 16GB RAM + 512GB storage variant for the Indian market.
The Indian variant of the Xiaomi 17 will have a 6,300 mAh battery, slightly smaller than the 6,330 mAh battery found in the European version. Apart from this minor change, all other specifications are expected to remain identical to the global model.
Alongside the Xiaomi Pad 8 (last year’s successor Xiaomi Pad 7), the company will also launch accessories, including the Xiaomi Focus Pen Pro and an official Xiaomi Pad 8 keyboard accessory, expanding the tablet productivity ecosystem in India.
Xiaomi has confirmed that the Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro, which debuted in select European markets, will not be launched in India.
Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra will be sold in India on mi.com/in, Amazon.in and Xiaomi stores across India after the launch.
