According to a new rumor from Digital Chat Station on Weibo, Xiaomi’s next flagship smartphones are currently being tested in black, white, pink, blue, and red. That is, as DCS says, a very rich color selection indeed.

While he doesn’t mention a specific model by name, it’s safe to assume that the phones in question are the Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max, which are both expected to become official next month, right after Qualcomm’s annual Snapdragon Summit where it will unveil the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipsets. The Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max have been rumored to go with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro SoC, which will be Qualcomm’s most powerful mobile chip to date.

Interestingly, DCS also mentions the fact that none of these devices’ colorways will come with a glass back. So we are then to assume that we’ll see fiberglass being used instead, which has definitely been trending for Chinese smartphone manufacturers recently.

The Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max will have the same design as their predecessors, also keeping the rear screens, which may or may not even grow in size.
