In the ever-evolving world of smartphones, Xiaomi is gearing up for yet another exciting addition to its lineup. The Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro, launched in China in October 2023, already turned heads with their HyperOS interface. Now, rumors are buzzing about the potential arrival of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, set to make its debut in March 2024.

Leaked images, surfacing online via GSMArena, showcase the alleged cover glass of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, providing a sneak peek into the smartphone’s camera enhancements.

The periscope telephoto camera is also in for an upgrade, boasting an f/2.5 aperture compared to the Xiaomi 13 Ultra’s f/3.0. Speculations from a reliable tipster hint at a Sony LYT-900 sensor for the primary camera, offering a variable aperture ranging from f/1.63 to f/2.5. An aspherical lens known as Vario-Summilux 1:1.63-2.5/12-120 is also rumored to be part of the package. Additionally, the leak mentions a 120mm periscope telephoto camera, adding versatility to the device’s photography capabilities.

In other reports, it’s suggested that the Xiaomi 14 Ultra could be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The device might flaunt a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 2K resolution and a silky smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Powering this beast could be a substantial 5,180mAh battery, featuring 90W wired charging support and 50W wireless charging capabilities. The possibility of a slightly curved display adds a stylish touch to the smartphone’s design.
