Lu Weibing, the current president at Xiaomi, has confirmed when its next camera flagship will launch. The company official has shared that the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will be making its official debut shortly after the Chinese Spring Festival, which starts on January 29. So, the potential launch is speculated to be in February.
To look back, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra was also announced in February, and it went on sale shortly after its debut in China. The global debut happened at MWC 2024, which wasn't far from the initial announcement. It seems that the same thing will happen with the upcoming camera flagship.
As Lu Weibing confirms, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will be sold "simultaneously around the world." That means there won't be any delay between the global and Chinese launches, something that's not common for the Chinese flagship phones. For instance, the standard smartphone of the new lineup has yet to see an international launch.
However, past reports have suggested that the Xiaomi 15 may also go global alongside its Ultra sibling. The company is unlikely to bring the Pro version outside China, though. Recent leaks have also suggested that the 15 Ultra will see a redesigned camera setup on the back.
It will reportedly sport a four-camera setup on the rear as the predecessor, but the sensors will be arranged differently. Some of the reports have suggested that this camera setup will consist of a 50MP primary, 50MP ultrawide, 50MP periscope, and a 200MP periscope telephoto. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is also expected to feature a 6,000mAh SiC battery with 90W wired and 50W wireless charging support (250W Anker Prime power bank curr. $149.99 on Amazon).
