Xiaomi 18 Pro has appeared in China’s SRRC certification database before Xiaomi has announced the 18 series. The listing identifies a device with model number M154FF and includes UWB support—features typically associated with a manufacturer’s top-tier Pro model.

Leak source Digital Chat Station also reports support for the N79 5G band. While that band is routine in certification documents, its combination with UWB strengthens the case that the device is the Xiaomi 18 Pro. UWB can enable precise positioning, accessory integration, and faster interactions between nearby devices.

Expected Xiaomi 18 Pro specifications

Xiaomi has not commented on the lineup, but earlier leaks point to a substantial hardware upgrade. The Xiaomi 18 Pro is reportedly being tested with a 2-nanometer flagship chip expected to be called Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, along with a display featuring extremely thin bezels and large rounded corners.

Other reported features include:

  • A battery of roughly 7,000 mAh
  • 100W wired and wireless charging
  • Stereo speakers and a larger vibration motor
  • A dedicated privacy-display mode modeled on Samsung’s solutions
  • Two 200-megapixel cameras, including the main and telephoto modules

The current Xiaomi 17 Pro, introduced in September, has a 6.3-inch display, a starting price of 4,999 yuan, and a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip. It also offers a 6,300 mAh battery, 100W wired charging, 50W wireless charging, a rear Magic Screen, and a Leica triple-camera system with a 50-megapixel Light Hunter 950L main sensor.

SRRC certification often appears during the final stages of pre-release preparation. If Xiaomi follows its usual schedule, the 18 series could be announced again in autumn, when Honor, vivo, and Oppo typically bring their flagship phones to China.
