Xiaomi 15T Pro: Higher than expected pricing revealed following launch date confirmation

More details about Xiaomi's next high-end smartphones have now emerged online following yesterday's launch date confirmation. For context, Xiaomi revealed that the Xiaomi 15T series would be arriving globally on September 24, just two days shy of the Xiaomi 14T and Xiaomi 14T Pro's first anniversary (curr. $609 on Amazon).

Not only that, but Xiaomi strongly hinted that the Xiaomi 15T Pro would feature a new 5x periscope telephoto camera. Now, X account PaperKing13 has provided evidence of all Xiaomi 15T Pro launch SKUs. Embedded below, the photo is said to originate from an unknown Eurozone retailer.

Surprisingly, the image shows the Xiaomi 15T Pro starting at €899 with 512 GB of storage and 12 GB of RAM, €100 more than prior leaks suggested. However, Roland Quandt previously indicated that the Xiaomi 15T Pro would start with 256 GB for €799, not with 512 GB for €899. Likewise, Xiaomi offering the same smartphone with 1 TB of storage for €999 is a new SKU not mentioned previously.

Thus, we would not rule the Xiaomi 15T Pro starting at €899 in some Eurozone markets and €799 in others. PaperKing13 emphasises that the device will not be available with 16 GB of RAM though, at least not in Europe. Instead, the X account has confirmed 'Mocha Gold' and 'Black' launch colours. Xiaomi will present the Xiaomi 15T Pro alongside the cheaper Xiaomi 15T, which was previously rumoured to start at €649.
