Xiaomi 15T Pro launch date locked in as surprise price hike sparks sticker shock

Xiaomi 15T Pro launch date, pricing, and key specs leak ahead of debut

Xiaomi has confirmed a global launch for the 15T series on September 24, landing just days before the one-year mark of the 14T lineup. As anticipation builds, a new European retail listing suggests the 15T Pro may cost more than early whispers indicated.

According to the leak, the Xiaomi 15T Pro will start at €899 in Europe for the 12 GB RAM and 512 GB storage model. A higher-tier version with 1 TB of storage is tipped to come in at €999. Notably, a 16 GB RAM variant doesn’t appear to be planned for Europe at launch. The Pro model is also expected to arrive in two colors: Mocha Gold and Black.

Beyond pricing, Xiaomi has hinted at a meaningful camera upgrade this year. The 15T Pro is strongly expected to feature a new 5x periscope telephoto camera on the back, complementing a clean, triple rear camera design. Under the hood, the phone is said to be powered by the Dimensity 9400+, pointing to flagship-level performance.

For buyers eyeing a lower price point, the standard Xiaomi 15T is expected to debut alongside the Pro and has been rumored to start at €649.

Key takeaways:
– Global launch date: September 24
– Processor: Dimensity 9400+
– Cameras: triple rear setup with a likely 5x periscope telephoto
– Europe RAM and storage: 12 GB RAM only; 512 GB (€899) or 1 TB (€999)
– Colors at launch: Mocha Gold and Black
– Xiaomi 15T (non-Pro) rumored price: €649

As with any pre-launch retailer listing, final pricing and configurations could vary by market. With the reveal just around the corner, we won’t have to wait long to see how Xiaomi positions its next flagship for 2025.
