Xiaomi has big plans for its upcoming Xiaomi 17 Pro flagship.
The sheer fact that the company skipped the Xiaomi 16 Pro altogether and went from number 15 to 17 shows that Xiaomi’s ambitions are to compete with Apple’s iPhone 17. However, while the name change is all too predictable, the phone itself will be quite different from most phones out there.
Xiaomi’s official Weibo account recently posted a teaser video showing the Xiaomi 17 Pro from the back, and it has a big camera bump with a dual camera system…and a secondary display.

Judging by what is shown in the video, the rear display is in full color and high definition, and could be used to display basic information such as the time, weather, but also to help you take better selfies.
According to Xiaomi, the new Xiaomi 17 Pro and the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max (yes, they’re really called that) both have the “Magic Back Screen.”
Xiaomi is scheduled to launch a bunch of phones this month; besides the new Xiaomi 17 Pro series of phones, the company will also globally launch the Xiaomi 15T phones.
