Bad News: Xiaomi 15 series is getting a price hike



Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun confirmed that the Xiaomi 15 series price will see an increase.

The Xiaomi 15 series will arrive on October 29. The lineup includes the vanilla Xiaomi 15 and the Xiaomi 15 Pro, which will be the first to show off the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. However, there’s a huge downside to this, as the lineup itself will have a price increase.

The company CEO announced the news in a post on Weibo, noting that the reason behind the move was the component cost (and R&D investments), which affirmed the hardware improvements in the series. The executive also recalled his past statements suggesting the upcoming Xiaomi 15 price increase. 

According to the well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, the Xiaomi 15 series will start with the 12GB/256GB configuration for the vanilla model this year. Past reports said that it would be priced at CN¥4599. To recall, the Xiaomi 14’s base 8GB/256GB configuration debuted for CN¥3999.

Past reports revealed that the standard model will also come in 16GB/1TB, which will be priced at CN¥5,499. Meanwhile, the Pro version is also reportedly coming in the same configurations. The lower option could cost CN¥5,499, while the 16GB/1TB would reportedly sell between CN¥6,299 and CN¥6,499.
