Xiaomi's upcoming Xiaomi 15 series smartphones will no longer offer an 8GB RAM version, instead, the base model's RAM configuration will start at 12GB, with a projected price increase. Xiaomi representative Wang Teng noted that future flagship models are likely to eliminate the 8GB RAM option due to the higher memory demands of on-device AI models. He suggested that as AI technology becomes more widespread in smartphones, users should opt for higher RAM versions whenever financial conditions permit. He also advised consumers to be aware of the pricing differences of RAM across different brands.

Xiaomi is set to unveil its latest flagship smartphone series, the Xiaomi 15 Series, in October. This series will be the first to come pre-installed with the next-generation Surge OS 2.0 operating system. The new system will focus on all-scenario intelligence and cross-platform connectivity, marking Xiaomi's full transition to an AI-driven system experience rather than just integrating AI features into applications.
