The Xiaomi 17 is the most iPhone-like Android phone I’ve used yet (and not in a good way)

There aren’t many options on the market if you want a smaller flagship Android phone. Samsung and Google are the top picks in this regard, but the Xiaomi 15 was another notable if flawed choice.

Now, Xiaomi has announced the Xiaomi 17 for global markets, and it continues to be a pocket-friendly flagship phone. Is it worth buying, though? That’s what I decided to find out in my hands-on.
