Xiaomi is reportedly working on its next-generation T series smartphones, the Xiaomi 15T and Xiaomi 15T Pro. While the official launch is still months away, leaks surrounding the devices have already begun surfacing online. The latest reports suggest that the Xiaomi 15T series will feature upgraded chipsets, with the standard Xiaomi 15T expected to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 Ultra, while the Pro variant could sport the high-performance MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ SoC. These early details hint at a significant performance boost over their predecessors, the Xiaomi 14T series.
According to a report by Smartprix, references to the Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro have been discovered within the latest HyperOS 2.1 code. The report reveals that Xiaomi has assigned unique codenames to these devices—“klimt” for the Xiaomi 15T and “turner” for the Xiaomi 15T Pro. These names are inspired by renowned painters Gustav Klimt and J.M.W. Turner, continuing Xiaomi’s tradition of using artistic themes for its device codenames.
Interestingly, the leaks suggest that the Xiaomi 15T Pro shares its internal codename with the upcoming Redmi K80 Ultra. This could indicate that both devices will have nearly identical hardware specifications. However, while the Redmi K80 Ultra is expected to remain exclusive to the Chinese market, the Xiaomi 15T Pro is likely to be released globally. This aligns with Xiaomi’s past strategy of differentiating models for different regions while maintaining similar core hardware.
While Xiaomi has not officially confirmed any details about the Xiaomi 15T series, these early leaks provide insight into the company’s upcoming lineup. If the rumored specifications hold true, the Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro could offer impressive performance enhancements, positioning them as strong contenders in the premium mid-range segment. More details are expected to surface in the coming months as the development progresses.
