Launch dates for Xiaomi & HONOR flagships seemingly revealed

Launch dates for both Xiaomi and HONOR flagships have seemingly been revealed. We’re talking about the Xiaomi 15 series and the HONOR Magic7 series here. The information comes from a rather accurate tipster, Fixed Focus Digital. Let’s talk about Xiaomi first.

Launch dates for Xiaomi & HONOR flagships have been revealed… it seems

The Xiaomi 15 flagship could launch sooner than expected. Some people thought that Xiaomi officially confirmed the launch date a couple of days ago, but the company was only confirming the launch of Qualcomm’s new chip, it seems.

Xiaomi mentioned the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, which is seemingly a new name for Qualcomm’s new flagship chip. Qualcomm looks more and more likely to ditch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 name, but we’ll see.

In any case, Xiaomi did mention the Xiaomi 15 in that announcement, along with the date, but the focus was not on the company’s smartphones. They won’t be coming on October 24 it seems.

The Xiaomi 15 series is coming on October 20, based on this info

Based on the provided information, the Xiaomi 15 series will launch before Qualcomm’s flagship chip. The phones are coming on October 20.

Yes, Xiaomi will announce smartphones fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Elite before the chip itself becomes official, at least judging by this. That is not exactly surprising considering that a Xiaomi representative confirmed that Xiaomi will be first to use that chip.

The Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro are expected to become official during Xiaomi’s launch. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra will likely follow next year. This launch event will take place in China, by the way. The global launch will follow later on.

The HONOR Magic7 series will follow on October 30

The HONOR Magic7 series, on the other hand, is said to arrive 10 days after, on October 30. That is in line with what we’ve seen yesterday, when a rumor said that the phones will launch at the very end of October.

That launch event will also take place in China, by the way. Those phones are also expected to arrive to global markets, though. The HONOR Magic7 and Magic7 Pro are expected to become official during the event.
