Xiaomi is preparing to launch its flagship Xiaomi 18 Pro in several international markets, including the European Economic Area, Turkey, Russia, Taiwan and Japan, while India is not in the initial rollout. Leaked specifications indicate the device will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset and will feature two 200 MP SmartSens rear sensors, one with a 1/1.28‑inch 3.0 LOFIC sensor for improved low‑light performance.

The model retains the secondary rear display first seen on the Xiaomi 17 Pro, and adds an AI button for quick camera functions. Reported battery capacity ranges from 7 000 mAh to 8 000 mAh with fast‑charging support. The phone is listed in global device databases under the codename “VENICE” with model number 26122PN61G (global) and M261DB (China). Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the details, but the leaks suggest a major refresh of its premium lineup.
