The Xiaomi 16’s specifications have been leaked; however, the Xiaomi 16 and Xiaomi 16 Pro’s launch is still six months away. In line with reports, the phone boasts the biggest 6.32-inch screen available. It has a Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 processor and a 7000mAh battery. Not even the launch of this processor is over yet.
While the Xiaomi 16 and Xiaomi 16 Pro may not be released for another six months, information regarding these phones is starting to leak online. The key features of the Xiaomi 16 series entry-level model have been made public via a recent leak. The regular Xiaomi 16 will feature the biggest battery ever found in a phone with a 6.32-inch screen. It might also be equipped with three back cameras. In March, the Xiaomi 15 model of the current generation made its debut in India.
Possible Xiaomi 16 specifications
Key specifications of the purported Xiaomi 16 have been revealed by Weibo user Smart Pikachu (translated from Chinese). With a 6.32-inch flat screen and minimal bezels all around, it will feature a small form factor. The HyperOS 3 interface, which is expected to be based on Android 16, will power it.
The Xiaomi 16 will have a light and thin build, based on the information we have obtained. Like the current Xiaomi 15 model, it might sport a 50-megapixel triple camera configuration. This phone, which has a 6.3-inch display, is said to contain the biggest battery ever. The tipster did not, however, specify the handset’s precise battery capacity. Due to this claim, the battery would be bigger than the 6,260mAh OnePlus 13T, which arrived in China earlier this month.
Recent reports suggest that the Xiaomi 16’s battery will have a capacity of about 7,000mAh. The Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset, which Qualcomm has not yet revealed, is expected to be included. According to reports, the newest silicon-carbon (Si/C) technology is used in the Xiaomi 16 series.
With a 5,400mAh battery that enables 50W wireless charging and 90W wired fast charging, the Xiaomi 15 arrived in China in October 2024. The Indian version included the same 90W wired and 50W wireless charging capabilities along with a 5,240mAh battery. The 12GB RAM + 512GB storage configuration prices Rs 64,999.
The Xiaomi 16’s other features are probably superior to those of the current Xiaomi 15 model. The Xiaomi 15 has a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and a 6.36-inch full-HD+ (1,200 x 2,670 pixels) LTPO AMOLED screen. It has 512GB of UFS 4.0 internal storage and up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM.
A 50-megapixel Light Fusion 900 sensor, a 50-megapixel telephoto camera, and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle shooter comprise the triple rear camera set that comes with it. A 32-megapixel front camera is also included. The phone is water and dust resistant, with an IP68 rating.
