Xiaomi 14 Ultra already available for direct import globally with quad 50 MP cameras

The Xiaomi 14 Ultra has barely been out a day, with Xiaomi presenting its latest flagship alongside new Redmi Book Pro laptops and the Pad 6S Pro 12.4 simultaneously at a wide-ranging launch event in China. Nonetheless, third-party retailers are already offering the Xiaomi 14 Ultra to global audiences. For reference, Xiaomi will release its Xiaomi 13 Ultra successor outside its home market later this week, seemingly with the Xiaomi 14, Watch 2 and Watch S3 in tow.

However, Xiaomi tends to scale back the memory configurations and colour options of its flagship devices for their international releases. As a result, there is no guarantee that the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will be available globally in all the SKUs that Xiaomi introduced yesterday in China, such as those with 1 TB of storage. In other words, websites like Trading Shenzhen are often the only way to obtain certain SKUs for those who live outside Xiaomi's home market.

To that end, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra starts at €1,097 (£938.52/$1,181.43) with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage through Trading Shenzhen in black, white and blue colour options. Alternatively, the new flagship can be picked up with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB or 1 TB of storage for €1,197 (£1,024.07/$1,289.13) and €1,297 (£1,109.62/$1,396.82), respectively. Currently, Trading Shenzhen hopes to begin shipping pre-orders on February 27, although it must be noted that the devices will ship with Chinese firmware and not necessarily with all the 5G and LTE bands that Xiaomi will afford to global units. Please see our Xiaomi 14 Ultra launch article for hardware details and how it compares against the Xiaomi 14 Pro, the company's other recent flagship smartphone.
