Xiaomi 18 won't have Qualcomm's top next-gen chipset

In September, Qualcomm is rumored to be unveiling the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, with the latter being the company's new top dog in the smartphone SoC space until 2027.

Now a new rumor from China claims the Xiaomi 18 will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, and not the Pro version of the SoC, since the Elite Gen 6 Pro is apparently going to be too expensive. That said, the Xiaomi 18 Pro and Xiaomi 18 Pro Max will most likely go with the Pro chipset.
