Emir BardakçıIn an eagerly-awaited move for Xiaomi users, a number of model numbers reportedly belonging to the Xiaomi 16 series have been discovered, thus hinting at the near launch of Xiaomi’s next flagship series. With these revelations, we get a better understanding of Xiaomi’s product roadmap and a peek at what’s next for the tech giant during the later part of 2025. The revelation ties into Xiaomi’s standard annual release cycle for its numbered flagship series and follows the victorious Xiaomi 15 series that has been wowing users since its release thanks to its cutting-edge features.
Model Numbers for Xiaomi 16 and 16 Pro Revealed
The following model numbers are reportedly associated with the incoming flagships, based on the most current data
Xiaomi 16
- 25113PN0EC
- 25113PN0EG
- 25113PN0EI
Xiaomi 16 Pro
- 2509FPN0BC
- 25098PN5AC
These model numbers conform to Xiaomi’s naming convention, and the first four numbers may indicate the release period between September 2025 and November 2025. Variants generally have different model numbers for different regions (India, China, Global) or different specifications (different Pro models for China).
“Nezha” Code Name Found in MiCode
To add credibility to these revelations, there has been a codename “nezha” seen within MiCode repositories, which is probably Xiaomi 16. Xiaomi tends to use codenames based on Chinese mythological figures for its flagship Xiaomi series smartphones, and “Nezha” is a renowned protective deity within Chinese folk religion, so this could be something big for the series.
Possible Launch Timeline
Analyses of the IMEI number trends show that the Xiaomi 16 series may be announced between September and November 2025. This timing would align with Xiaomi’s new strategy of bringing out its numbered series ahead of its traditional launch dates, possibly to compete better in the year-end high-end smartphone market.
What to expect
At the moment, specifications are unofficial, but the Xiaomi 16 series is likely to be equipped with:
- The new generation Snapdragon processor (most probably Snapdragon 8 Elite 2)
- Improved camera functionality through partnership with Leica
- Additional tuning to HyperOS
- Improved technology for batteries
- Slim design
