From the manufacturer

Xiaomi emphasises the Leica camera system and 5× telephoto. Its 120× AI zoom does not mean a 120× optical lens. Xiaomi

Strengths and limitations

  • Expert Reviews praises display colour accuracy and everyday responsiveness, but criticises preinstalled apps and cluttered settings.

    Expert Reviews: Xiaomi 17T review
  • On Notebookcheck’s test unit, full-screen brightness averaged about 1102 cd/m² and HDR peak measured 3439 cd/m², in line with the claimed 3500 nits. The review praises the main camera, which is very good in daylight, and the new 5× periscope telephoto that avoids heavy oversharpening; it finds the 12 MP ultra-wide without OIS or autofocus the weakest unit. Downsides include USB 2.0, no wireless charging or Wi-Fi 7, mediocre speakers and a lot of plastic; throttling is noted under stress.

    Marcus Herbrich’s single-sample review; 12 GB / 512 GB test unit, same model as the 12 GB / 256 GB in this entry. PWM figures are omitted because the review contradicts itself.
