TL;DR

  • A Xiaomi 17 Pro series teaser video shows off several uses for the rear display.

  • The rear screen can show various clock styles, lock screen text, avatars, and more, much like a Flip phone’s cover display.

  • A previous leak also notes that this screen can display exercise info, app notifications, and ‘travel card’ swiping.




The Xiaomi 17 series will be the first phones with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Xiaomi confirmed that the Pro phones have a rear screen, and a new teaser has now hinted at some uses for this display.



The manufacturer posted a teaser video on Weibo, which shows the Xiaomi 17 Pro’s rear screen being used in various ways. You can view the clip below.
