Xiaomi confirms more phones with rear displays after 17 Pro Max shatters sales records
It’s difficult to release a genuinely unique smartphone in 2025, but Xiaomi succeeded. The Xiaomi 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, which have extra screens on the back, were released by the firm, and it seems that this decision was successful.
Lu Weibing, the president of Xiaomi, stated during a livestream (source in Chinese) on Weibo that the business will keep using Dynamic Back Displays in its upcoming flagship devices. According to him, the business already has plans to boost its R&D expenditures in order to guarantee higher-quality displays for Xiaomi’s upcoming smartphones.
The choice was made in light of the Xiaomi 17 series’ success, which the company says was enormous and witnessed a 20% rise in sales over the previous year. The Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, which broke the first-day domestic sales record, is the biggest hit.
What is the secondary display used for?
The Xiaomi 17 Pro and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, in contrast to Apple’s iPhone 17 and 17 Pro Max, make use of the so-called camera plateau and have secondary displays atop it. It is a 2.66-inch OLED screen with a resolution of 904 x 572 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, and a brightness of up to 3,500 nits. It has a selfie viewfinder, a few widgets, customizable wallpapers, and other features like the cover screen of contemporary flip phones.
It wouldn’t be shocking to see a larger screen with more features on what might be the Xiaomi 18 series, especially in light of Xiaomi’s most recent announcement. According to Lu Weibing, the business is updating the displays from the current generation. One of them ought to equip the gadget with a real-time translating function.
