Global launch event set for Paris with regional pre-order incentives
The event will be held in Paris at 13:00 (UTC) on 17th November. We have two models to look at in the Xiaomi 18 Pro series. The standard Xiaomi 18 Pro and the bigger Xiaomi 18 Pro Max.
A focus for Xiaomi here is the pre-order incentives, these differ across the world. In some cases, you can expect to get a charger, cable, smart band, or even a robot vacuum as a pre-order bonus based on where you are.
The Xiaomi 18 Pro Max comes with four different colorways to pick from. You have Black, Cosmic Blue, White, or even Velvet Red. The operating system is Android based, fitting in with Xiaomi's smartphone portfolio. The date of the release shows us the timing for global availability.
There's a big difference in the pre-order bonuses for buyers based on location. Those in the UK or France can expect charger and cables to be part of their pre-order bonus. In Europe, you can either pick a Smart Band or a speaker. For those in Singapore, the bonus items are a Robot Vacuum or a TV.
The Xiaomi 18 Pro Max comes alongside other recently released Xiaomi products like the Xiaomi 18 Pro Duo that has the rear screen.

1399 euros is a hard sell. I am waiting for the standard Pro instead.
