Xiaomi has officially teased the camera specifications of its upcoming Xiaomi 15 Ultra, promising a revolutionary photographic experience. Set to continue Xiaomi’s tradition of camera-focused flagship devices, the 15 Ultra features a 1-inch Sony IMX989 primary sensor paired with advanced optical technologies. This sensor, already praised for its performance in other devices, is expected to deliver exceptional image quality, especially in low-light conditions.
The device also introduces a periscope telephoto lens capable of up to 120x digital zoom, offering enhanced flexibility for capturing distant subjects. Alongside this, Xiaomi has collaborated with Leica to further refine the imaging system, integrating Leica’s color science and distinctive photography modes to deliver professional-grade results.
Another highlight is the incorporation of computational photography features, leveraging the power of AI algorithms to enhance image clarity, HDR, and color accuracy. This ensures that users can capture stunning photos across various lighting conditions. For video enthusiasts, the 15 Ultra reportedly supports 8K video recording with advanced stabilization and cinematic shooting options.
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra isn’t just about hardware; it also offers a suite of photography tools within its MIUI camera app, including pro-mode controls, enhanced RAW shooting, and post-processing capabilities tailored for creators. The device aims to position itself as one of the best in mobile photography for 2024.
Further details, including availability and pricing, are expected to be unveiled during its official launch event later this year.
