Xiaomi Japan has announced a campaign to solicit a nickname for the rear display, with 1 entrant selected by lottery to win an actual device. The campaign covers the Xiaomi 18 Pro series and also provides information on specifications and timing for the Japanese launch.
Xiaomi Japan has posted on its official X account calling for nickname suggestions for the rear display, and announced a campaign in which 1 entrant selected by lottery from among those who apply via quote repost will receive a new smartphone.
The rear display uses a 2.7-inch AMOLED panel with a resolution of 912 × 596 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz and brightness of up to 4,000 nits. It supports the display of more than 100 types of app cards, including weather and timers, as well as AI-generated characters.
The handset is equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, 12 GB or 16 GB of RAM, 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB of storage, a 6.4-inch main display, a 7,000 mAh battery, 100 W wired and 50 W wireless charging, and a Leica co-developed camera system. Its price in China starts at approximately ¥5,999.
The device has already passed Japan’s technical conformity certification, but is expected not to support FeliCa. The price and launch date are expected to be formally announced when the global rollout takes place in November.
