Xiaomi 17T series lands in China, 17T gets battery boost

Following their global launch last month, the Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro have now made their way to the Chinese market with one major upgrade for the vanilla 17T. It gets the same 7,000mAh Si/C battery as the Pro model. For those keeping track at home, that’s a 500mAh boost compared to the global version. Charging is still capped at 67W.

Outside of the battery boost on the 17T, and the additional 16GB RAM option on the 17T Pro, the Chinese variants offer the same core specs as the international models.
