The claim

A standard Xiaomi 18 is still coming this year, around December in China, with 100W wired charging, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, a 200MP main camera and a 7,200mAh battery.

Why we rated it Rumor

A new 3C certification (via GSMArena) lists a Xiaomi phone with 100W charging that is believed, not confirmed, to be the Xiaomi 18. The December timing and other specs come from earlier leaks. Certification is hard evidence that a device exists, but its identity is inferred and Xiaomi has not mentioned the base model.
