Exclusive Peek: Hands-on Image Reveals Xiaomi 14 Ultra Design with Circular Rear Camera Module
Quad Camera Setup Rumored for Xiaomi 14 Ultra: What to Expect
Xiaomi made waves in October last year with the launch of its flagship duo, the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro, featuring the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. Now, the anticipation mounts as Xiaomi prepares to unveil these premium smartphones to global markets outside of China on February 25. However, the spotlight isn’t solely on the familiar faces, as whispers suggest the long-awaited debut of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra at the same event.
Ahead of its official unveiling, a purported live image of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra has surfaced, courtesy of tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo. In the photo, the device is seen alongside flagship offerings from other brands, offering a glimpse of its design and rear camera layout. Sporting an off-white colorway, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra catches the eye with its circular-shaped camera module, reminiscent of the design ethos seen in last year’s Xiaomi 13 Ultra.
We caught our first glimpse of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra early in January through a series of hands-on images. The previous leak highlighted a larger camera island and Leica branding.
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is tipped to include a quad rear camera setup comprising four 50-megapixel cameras. The camera unit might carry Sony’s latest LYT900 1-inch sensor as the primary camera with an f/1.63 aperture. It is expected to have a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate.
Like in the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC is expected to power the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. It is said to feature slightly curved screens and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner for authentication. The phone could be backed by a 5,180mAh battery with 90W wired charging support and 50W wireless charging support.
Xiaomi recently announced the global release date of the Xiaomi 14 series. The handsets will be launched on February 25 in Barcelona, just ahead of MWC.
