Xiaomi has announced that the new Xiaomi Pad 8 will go on sale in India starting March 17, bringing flagship performance, workstation features and new accessories for productivity and creativity.
Xiaomi has launched the Xiaomi 17 Series in India, introducing the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra with Leica cameras, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 performance and batteries designed to power demanding flagship use.
Xiaomi Pad 8 is confirmed to launch in India later this week. The landing page for the tablet also reveals that the Xiaomi Focus Keyboard with adaptive backlit keys and a touchpad will also launch alongside.
As the global tablet market regains momentum, Xiaomi is positioning its upcoming Pad 8 as more than a secondary screen. Company executives argue that shifting workloads, rising AI demands and changing work habits have made tablets viable primary machines — at prices far below traditional laptops.
Xiaomi is scheduled to launch its next-generation flagship 17 series, skipping its purported 16 series, which appears to be in response to Apple's recent iPhone 17 series launch. The lineup will likely include the Xiaomi 17, Xiaomi 17 Pro, and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max.
The Xiaomi 15T series, which is expected to include the Xiaomi 15T and the Xiaomi 15T Pro, could launch soon, as the purported live images of these sub-premium phones have surfaced, alongside their key specifications.
Called the Xiaomi 20000mAh 22.5W Compact Power Bank, the device features a built-in USB-C cable and supports simultaneous charging of up to three devices.
Xiaomi is set to unveil its latest flagship 15 series, which consists of the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Both smartphones are expected to offer a base configuration of 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, and will boot with Android 15-based HyperOS 2.0.
After a successful launch in China in October, Xiaomi is gearing up to launch the Xiaomi Pad 7 in India on January 10. The brand is also expected to launch additional accessories for the tablet, such as a folio case with a keyboard and a stylus pen.
The Xiaomi Civi 14 is the new entrant in the competitive 'affordable' premium phone segment. It comes armed with Leica-branded cameras, powerful processor and more.
Xiaomi's revenue from operations declined by about 32 per cent to Rs 26,697 crore in FY23 from about Rs 39,100 crore in FY22.
Xiaomi's plans align with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology's (MeitY) upcoming incentive scheme, set to launch in August-September with an anticipated outlay of Rs 30,000-40,000 crore.
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is not only the most affordable in the Xiaomi 14 series but also the most affordable smartphone in India to feature Leica cameras.
The Xiaomi 14 Civi marks the arrival of the first Civi phone in India and is targeted towards camera enthusiasts. It has a starting price of Rs 39,999 after offers.
