The Chinese consumer electronics giant, Xiaomi seems to be all set to unveil the Xiaomi 17 Ultra later this month in China.
Correct Optical Flaws and Improve Clarity
This upcoming launch will be a new addition to the lineup, which already includes the Xiaomi 17 and 17 Pro, which is already debuted in September this year.
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra will have a refreshed Leica lens coating tailored to correct optical flaws and improve clarity as revealed by a new leak by Smart Pikachu.
As per this latest leak, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra focuses heavily on optical purity.
The tipster also suggests that the device is expected to feature a new Leica coating designed to enhance light transmission while minimizing glare and ghosting.
Further describing this approach as leaving optical problems to be solved by optics, which ensures high definition and color fidelity rather than relying solely on software.
What To Expect In Xiaomi 17 Ultra ?
Apart from the glass, the camera arrangement is reportedly shifting as the 17 Ultra might drop the quad-camera setup in favor of a powerful triple-lens system, unlike its predecessor.
With this setup, they will have a primary 50-megapixel 1-inch sensor, possibly the OmniVision OV50X, paired with a massive 200-megapixel periscope telephoto lens.
It will accompany a 50-megapixel ultra-wide shooter, offering a versatile photography experience.
Moving ahead, this smartphone will most likely run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform to handle complex image processing.
Leaks also highlight a significant battery upgrade, potentially falling between 6,000mAh and 7,000mAh, marking a substantial jump for the series.
17 Ultra’s front view is expected to return to a flat display design rather than a curved screen, integrating an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner for security.
In addition to this, the smartphone will sport dual satellite communication capabilities and a high-durability build.
The latest leak also talks about the Band 10 Pro fitness tracker and Xiaomi’s first NAS storage solution will share the stage at the Xiaomi 17 Ultra launch event.
