Xiaomi is gearing up for the global launch of the Xiaomi 15 series on March 2nd, with India expected to be part of the unveiling. However, fresh leaks indicate that the official pricing for Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Ultra in India will be revealed two weeks after the global event, with the sale expected to begin soon after.
Xiaomi 15 Series India Launch and Sale Date
While the Xiaomi 15 series will make its global debut on March 2nd, tipster Abhishek Yadav has claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that Xiaomi will announce the India pricing on March 18th, followed by the first sale on March 21st.
If accurate, this means Xiaomi fans in India will have to wait slightly longer before getting their hands on the latest Xiaomi flagship smartphones.
