Xiaomi has launched the Xiaomi 17T Pro in Europe and the U.K., alongside the standard Xiaomi 17T. The Pro model is the more powerful of the two, with a larger display, Leica-branded cameras, a bigger battery, and MediaTek’s new flagship chip.

A larger Leica-backed sensor leads the camera setup

The camera system is the main focus on the 17T Pro. Its triple rear camera setup is led by a 50MP Light Fusion 950 main sensor. This is a large 1/1.31-inch sensor with optical image stabilization and an f/1.67 Leica Summilux lens, which should help with low-light shots and capturing more detail.

Xiaomi has also added a 50MP 5x periscope telephoto camera with OIS, which supports 10x optical-grade zoom, likely through a sensor crop with image processing, and extends up to 120x with AI-assisted zoom. The same telephoto camera can also be used for macro shots from as close as 30cm.
