Xiaomi 15 Ultra stars in official teaser video as complete specs of new flagship also leak online
Xiaomi has now confirmed that it will be officially presenting its next Ultra flagship on February 27. While that date will only apply for Xiaomi's home market, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is anticipated to launch globally a few days later on March 2.
In the meantime, Roland Quandt and WinFuture have described what amounts to a full specification sheet while also publishing new images of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra (curr. $1,029 on Amazon) successor. Unsurprisingly, Xiaomi has equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which is now the chipset of choice for current-generation Android flagships. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra will complement this chipset with a 5,410 mAh battery that supports 80 W wireless and 90 W wired charging, at least in China.
Quandt reports that Xiaomi will also include a 6.73-inch LTPO AMOLED display that resolves at 3,200 x 1,440 pixels, 120 Hz, 3,200 nits and with 'Shield Glass 2.0' protection. The large display will be joined by the following camera hardware:
- Primary: 50 MP, Sony LYT-900, 1/0.98-inch optical format, f/1.63 aperture
- Telephoto 1: 50 MP, 70 mm focal length, 3x optical zoom, f/1.8 aperture
- Telephoto 2: 200 MP, 100-200 mm focal length, 4.3x optical zoom, f/2.5 aperture
- Ultra-wide-angle: 50 MP, 14 mm focal length
- Front-facing: 32 MP
Meanwhile, Xiaomi's General Manager Cici Lao Wei has now shared a short hands-on video of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra on Bilibili in China. Uploaded to YouTube by Sparrows News, the 90-second clip showcases the device in three of its launch finishes, including a two-tone option inspired by classic Leica cameras. The video provides a closer look at the texture of each finish too, which is hard to discern from leaked product images.
