Here’s everything we know about the Xiaomi 15 Ultra so far.
Processor and Additional Features
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is rumoured to be powered by Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC.
Moreover, the device will sport a 2K quad-curved display.
A larger battery is also expected, ensuring longer usage time without frequent recharges.
In terms of design, the 15 Ultra will most likely have a premium ceramic and faux leather finish on the rear.
Camera Upgrades
One of the standout features of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is its 200MP telephoto camera with 10x space zoom.
This camera upgrade will likely introduce a new zoom toggle feature as well.
Previously, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra offered five zoom levels (0.5x, 1x, 2x, 3.2x, and 5x), but the 15 Ultra will be adding a sixth, 10x zoom option, giving users greater flexibility in capturing detailed images from a distance.
It is important to note that the 200MP telephoto camera is not entirely new to the market.
It has previously gained popularity in China on the Vivo X100 Ultra.
Moreover, Xiaomi is also partnering with Sony to upgrade the Sony LYT-900 sensor. This was also previously introduced in the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
This enhanced sensor is designed to deliver superior low-light performance.
It makes it easier to capture clear and vibrant photos in challenging lighting conditions.
Enhanced Video and Selfie Capabilities
Among other leaked features of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is the dedicated 4K Cinematic video mode.
While the previous Ultra model offered Cinematic mode limited to 1080p, the 15 Ultra will support full 4K resolution.
The Slow-Motion mode is also set to receive a significant upgrade.
On the front, Xiaomi is expected to improve its selfie camera with a potential 50MP upgrade.
This rumour if true means the upcoming device will take a significant leap from the 32MP front camera found on the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
Launch Date and Availability
No exact launch date has been announced yet.
However, it is being widely speculated that the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is expected to launch in China within the first two months of 2025.
As the launch date approaches, more details about the phone’s features are likely to emerge.
