Xiaomi 18 Pro Series Set for Global Launch This November

Xiaomi has officially confirmed that the Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max, which debuted in China in September, will be available internationally by the end of November. The company has already begun preparing for the global launch on social media, paving the way for international customers to purchase these high-performance devices. ## European Pricing and Configurations Information leaked on the Italian retailer Epto’s website has revealed the European pricing and configurations for the new lineup. The base model of the Xiaomi 18 Pro, featuring 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, will be priced at €1,398.90. The more advanced Xiaomi 18 Pro Max will be available in a single configuration—12GB/512GB—with a price tag of €1,783.90. Both models will be offered in three colours: black, white, and velvet red. ## Changes to Technical Specifications While the core features of the smartphones remain identical to the Chinese versions, the global models will have one significant difference: battery capacity. Xiaomi has opted to reduce the battery size for international markets. Specifically, the global Xiaomi 18 Pro will be equipped with a 6,000 mAh battery, a decrease from the 7,000 mAh capacity found in the Chinese model. A similar adjustment applies to the Pro Max, which will feature a 7,050 mAh battery compared to the 8,500 mAh version sold in China. Despite these changes, the devices maintain their flagship status and high performance. ## What This Means for Users The release of these global versions is significant for markets like Georgia, as international models are typically the ones that reach local retailers. Although the battery capacity has been reduced, these devices remain premium-class smartphones that are expected to arrive on the local market in the near future. For users seeking high-end cameras and powerful processors, the Xiaomi 18 Pro series offers a compelling alternative.
