Xiaomi founder, chairman, and CEO Lei Jun has shared incredible sample photos from the upcoming Xiaomi 17 Pro series, highlighting its phenomenal ability to capture stunning images in challenging backlit conditions. This new flagship is being called the “King of Backlight,” a title that perfectly sums up its ambitious product design goal. With the debut of a new “Leica Light and Shadow Master” imaging system and the cutting-edge Light Hunter 950L image sensor, the Xiaomi 17 Pro is set to redefine mobile photography. It’s a true game-changer that builds on our long history of innovation, including the groundbreaking cameras on devices like the Xiaomi 15 Ultra and the Xiaomi 15 Pro. The new series will also be equipped with LOFIC high dynamic technology, which promises an ultra-high dynamic range of 16.5EV, allowing for remarkable detail in both the highlights and shadows of a single photo.
The Xiaomi 17 Pro Series: A Breakthrough in Mobile Photography
The biggest news surrounding the Xiaomi 17 Pro series is its official announcement as the first phone to overcome the immense challenge of backlit photography. This is made possible by the integration of LOFIC, the third-generation high-dynamic range technology for mobile imaging. This allows the device to achieve high-dynamic HDR in a single frame, reaching Xiaomi’s highest sensor dynamic range to date. This is an engineering feat that ensures photos, videos, and even previews maintain incredible clarity and detail, making backlit scenes and fast-moving subjects look truly epic.
The new phone’s imaging capabilities go beyond just sensors. It also features an optical coating that has been significantly improved to tackle common photography issues. This “optical coating grand slam” is designed to reduce problems like ghosting, fogging, and lens flare, ensuring that every photo you take is as clean and crisp as possible.
What to Expect from the Xiaomi 17 Series
The highly anticipated Xiaomi 17 series is set to be officially unveiled in China on September 25th at 7 PM. This launch will introduce three different models, each designed to meet a specific need for our users:
