The Xiaomi 18 Pro Max will have a 6.9-inch flat LIPO OLED screen with extremely narrow symmetrical bezels, which will be even narrower than the ones the 17 Pro Max had. The display panel will go down to 1-nit brightness in ultra low light, and will support the BT.2020 color space.
In September, Qualcomm is rumored to be unveiling the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, with the latter being the company's new top dog in the smartphone SoC space until 2027. Now a new rumor from China claims the Xiaomi 18 will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, and not the Pro version of the SoC, since the Elite Gen 6 Pro is apparently going to be too expensive.
Although the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC has only been official for a little over a month now, last week we already heard some rumors about its successor, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6. Today even more details have been outed in China. Intriguingly, it now looks like we'll have both the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro on the market next year.
