Xiaomi 17 Pro to Feature Innovative Rear-Mounted Secondary Screen
MADRID, September 16th – Xiaomi is poised to disrupt smartphone interaction with the upcoming Xiaomi 17 Pro series, confirmed to include a secondary screen integrated into the rear camera module.The announcement, made by Xiaomi President Lu Weibing on Weibo, signals a notable design shift for the Chinese tech giant.
Rather than following sequential naming conventions, Xiaomi is skipping a generation, launching the Xiaomi 17 series as its next flagship line following the Xiaomi 15. This move underscores the substantial changes planned for the new devices.
The rear-mounted screen, showcased by Weibing, is intended to offer users novel ways to engage with their smartphones.Details regarding the screen’s functionality remain limited, but the integration suggests potential for fast access to notifications, camera controls, or other customizable features without fully activating the main display.
Xiaomi is expected to officially unveil the Xiaomi 17 series later this month, positioning it as a direct competitor to Apple’s anticipated iPhone 17.The addition of a secondary screen marks a bold step towards innovation in a saturated smartphone market.
