Xiaomi's next flagship smartphone lineup, the Xiaomi 18 series, has surfaced on China's 3C certification database, with GSMArena reporting that the phone could actually launch later this year. The 3C certification is a mandatory requirement for electronic devices sold in China, and its appearance is often a strong signal that a product's launch is drawing near.
According to the 3C listing, at least one Xiaomi 18 model supports wired fast charging of around 100W. This charging speed is comparable to the current Xiaomi 17 series, suggesting Xiaomi may be refining its existing fast-charging technology rather than introducing a dramatic upgrade. However, Xiaomi has not yet officially confirmed the exact wattage, battery capacity, or other detailed specifications for the upcoming series.
Interestingly, Xiaomi skipped several number iterations to align its naming with rival flagship series, jumping straight to "17" last cycle. The swift appearance of "18" certification details hints that Xiaomi may be accelerating its release schedule this time around, potentially bringing the new flagship to market sooner than usual.
Given Xiaomi's massive popularity among smartphone users in Myanmar, any leak regarding its next flagship's charging capabilities and launch timeline is bound to generate strong interest among local fans and prospective buyers alike.
