The UnboxingTN Verdict

out of 100

The Xiaomi 17 Max combines flagship performance, huge endurance and modern connectivity, but its 225g, 6.9-inch body feels cumbersome.

What is good

  • Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 delivers flagship-class processing.
  • 8000 mAh battery and 50W wireless charging support strong endurance.
  • Wi-Fi 7, 5G, Bluetooth 5.4 and USB 3.2 ensure modern connectivity.

What is not

  • 225g weight makes this large phone noticeably heavy.
  • 6.9-inch display reduces one-handed comfort.
  • IP66 protects against dust and water jets, not immersion.

  • Performance 94
  • Camera 86
  • Display 74
