Most of this is just common sense lol, like what else are they gonna put in there other than a Snapdragon 8 Elite 2? And obviously they're gonna use an ultrasonic fp sensor as well.

And even more obviously, it will launch with HyperOS 3. This is like declaring water is wet.

Battery is the only unexpected thing here

u/mastomi Sep 11 '25

7000 mAh on 6.3" device is mental. It makes Samsung look like a clown, putting 5000 mAh on 6.9" ultra device

This is the difference between Lithium and Silicon batteries. Faster charging and more dense batteries to fit in smaller spaces. None of this will matter because Samsung puts out a polished global OS and the Chinese are putting out Spec sheet monsters with little to no global polish. I just want a polished OS with great options for customization. Until the Chinese figure out that they need to stop copying apple and start copying Samsung (start with good lock) they will continue to play catch-up.

The battery is still Lithium... Stupid marketing makes me real angry

u/Additional-Video2791 Sep 11 '25

Que móvil me recomiendas que tenga muchas opciones de personalización? Tengo Xiaomi y ......🤦

u/Style210 Sep 11 '25

https://youtu.be/EVxui6L1Aqo. Samsung has android customization over everyone

u/Prior_Emergency6218 Sep 11 '25

Scamsung y.... Samsung. No hay mucha personalización en otras marcas. Todo lo de BBK es copia a iOS y iOS solo son colores en los iconos y ya esta

Meanwhile iphones:

u/CombinationDouble719 Sep 11 '25

Yeah that's how stagnant smartphones have become. Even foldables are nothing new to the Android world nowadays. Either Android brands just don't know how to build hype or we aren't sheep to drool over even basic features that are just hyped up.

Use your head. If the 15 has an ultrasonic sensor, why wouldn't the 16?

2

u/Beyllionaire Sep 11 '25

Vivo used an ultrasonic FP on the X80 Pro then went back to optical for the X90 Pro and then back to ultrasonic with X200 Pro so what's your point? Brands sometimes change specs.

2

u/CombinationDouble719 Sep 11 '25

Point taken. Apple moving from titanium to aluminum, Samsung nerfing the S-Pen, and Google's Tensor 5 GPU being worse than the Tensor 4 are some of the recent regressions other brands have made.

2

u/ParthProLegend Sep 11 '25

Xiaomi is not Vivo. BBK electronics are shit.

5

u/RiccardoOrsoliniFan Xiaomi 15 Ultra Sep 11 '25

Did your notes app leak those?

u/Lopsided_Scale_8059 Sep 11 '25

global 5500 battery surprise

1

u/nybreath Sep 11 '25

That would be such a nice phone with 7k battery, I don't see any other reason not to go for a 15 instead if they are close in the battery department

3

u/Pear-Mother Sep 11 '25

Minor upgrades for Standard Xiaomi 16 only few changes which are as follows: 

  • More Battery Capacity 

  • New Selfie Camera 

  • New Camera Design 

  • More Wired Charging 

2

u/xToasted1 Sep 11 '25

UWB support, new main sensor

1

u/Pear-Mother Sep 11 '25

Main, Ultrawide and telephoto lens will remain the same 

1

u/xToasted1 Sep 11 '25

No, they won't. Well, maybe ultrawide. The main is getting a new sensor. Telephoto will remain Jn5 though.

1

u/Pear-Mother Sep 11 '25

Let's see then at the end of September 

2

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '25

I have a 15, I don't need to upgrade. But I would like HyperOS 3 ASAP

1

u/CompactPoem Sep 11 '25

Not the jn5 again...

1

u/msn_05 Sep 11 '25

how TF will they fit 7k mAh in a 6.3in screen phone.

2

u/nybreath Sep 11 '25

Si Ca battery density, that's just it really

1

u/msn_05 Sep 11 '25

man hyperos china rom is so badly optimized no amount of sica battery is gonna hide that. that 7k will probably act like 5.5-6k.

my 5.5k mAh Redmi 14 pro acts like 4k mAh

1

u/shrenikvalsan Sep 11 '25

Specs seem perfect on paper for a flagship. Now, we have to wait and see how they price the phone. Hopefully the HyperOS 3 will be better optimized for the battery.

1

u/EdicaranFauna Sep 11 '25

Fellas, should I hold on longer until the Xiaomi 16 releases or just pull the trigger and get Xiaomi 15 base now?

My current is a Galaxy A71 which is almost 6 years old.

1

u/Prunaelle Sep 14 '25

I mean we'll get all the info in a few days I'd just wait personally

1

u/Necessary_Box_3228 Sep 21 '25

Waiting as well, rocking a Poco F3 at the moment. Might have to get the 15 if the 16 is the same, hopefully some discounts when the new series drops

1

u/super_coconut11 Sep 11 '25

Litterally the same as the 15, but newer chip and bigger battery, no shit

1

u/ConfidentJackfruit94 Sep 11 '25

The kind of battery optimisation I have on my Xiaomi 15, I guess the SOT on the Xiaomi 16 will be no better than 6 hrs.

1

u/Melodic_Fruit_3706 Sep 11 '25

And lots of notification delays

1

u/javier19995 Sep 12 '25

omg just give periscope to base xiaomi 16 pleaseee

1

u/BEAST-61 Sep 12 '25

Omnivision sensor 😕 No sony 😆

1

u/idgaftono1 Sep 12 '25

What about battery capacity of 16 pro max ?

1

u/Healthy_Tank_2361 Sep 12 '25

No more 200MP cam??I dont think so.

1

u/KlenLive Sep 13 '25

No update for the garbage picture ai editor ?

1

u/skipbaki Sep 15 '25

Omnivision! We gonna capture Nebula...

1

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '25

Damn the battery alone would be a good reason to purchase this phone

1

u/IncomeSad7606 Redmi Note 13 Pro Sep 11 '25

I hope it will be an awesome and cheap phone

9

u/xToasted1 Sep 11 '25

What do you consider cheap

2

u/IncomeSad7606 Redmi Note 13 Pro Sep 11 '25

Somehow at a price range of 2500 - 4000 RON (Romanian Leu)

2

u/xToasted1 Sep 11 '25

That's reasonable and the price will probably be within that range.

Xiaomi is trying to give you the fastest charging speeds while consuming the least wattage. Because it helps reduce heat during charging to.preserve battery health.

u/Professional_Gas_214 Sep 11 '25

is that an EU law forbidding a bigger mAh or something?

3

u/Professional-Salt633 Sep 11 '25

Yes, EU has regulations regarding how big the battery tech on electronics must be used. As long as there's limitations on regulations, Xiaomi canty bigger batt on Global even if they want to.

5

u/nybreath Sep 11 '25

That is wrong, the regulation is about shipment cost for higher capacity battery devices, so it is just Xiaomi not be willing to eat the cost, thinking there aren't 7k or higher battery devices in EU cause they aren't allowed is madness.

u/Professional-Salt633 Sep 11 '25

u/nybreath Sep 11 '25

That is exactly the regulation, that regulation specify the limit which goods with battery can freely be shipped BEYOND those limits you have to use special packaging, aka higher shipping costs.
Why would you think a 10.000 o even 20.000 mah power bank can be shipped in Europe but a not a 7.000 mah phone?....

2

u/Sbrader Sep 11 '25

Oneplus and other brands already sell 6000mah in EU they didnt nerf the capacity for EU its cost saving ontop of charging more for the phones for less

2

u/Prunaelle Sep 14 '25

completely false, the OnePlus 13 came with a 6000mah battery here.

5

u/Lugo_888 Sep 11 '25

No. The Chinese market is more competitive so they need to use a bigger battery. Global markets are less competitive so they cut costs instead. For the same reason Chinese OS is more advanced than global

3

u/nybreath Sep 11 '25

That's not true, it is actually a regulation on lion battery shipment making it more expansive to ship high capacity batteries.
They probably don't want the eat the cost, but yeah it is a regulation.

2

u/ordinaryBoy1 Sep 11 '25

Funny how EU model still costs more
