Xiaomi is gearing up to launch its much-anticipated flagship, the Xiaomi 15, in India. Already launched in China in October, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, the smartphone has now received approval from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), signaling its imminent arrival in the Indian market. The Xiaomi 15 is poised to succeed the Xiaomi 14, continuing the legacy of the brand’s flagship lineup.
BIS Certification Details
A recent report from 91Mobiles reveals that the Xiaomi 15, identified with the model number 24129PN74I, has appeared on the BIS certification site. While the certification does not divulge specifications, it confirms the device is now cleared for its India launch.
Interestingly, only the base model of the Xiaomi 15 series seems to have received certification. As observed with the previous generation, it is unlikely that the Xiaomi 15 Pro will be launched in India. Last year, Xiaomi introduced the Xiaomi 14 but skipped the Pro model while bringing the Xiaomi 14 Ultra to the Indian market. This year’s strategy appears to follow a similar pattern.
