Thanks to an exclusive leak from Smartprix, we now have a general picture of what the upcoming Xiaomi 15 Ultra will look like. On the back, it features a large circular camera module on the back with a Leica-branded quad-camera setup.

On the front, it sports a modern centre-aligned punch-hole display with minimal bezels and a subtle curve at the edges. The leaked information suggests this phone comes with a 6.7-inch, 120 Hz, 2K LTPO micro quad-curved display.

Performance

For internals, we expect the 15 Ultra to have a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, fabbed on a 3nm process. This boasts two Oryon (Phoenix L) cores clocking at 4.32 GHz and six Oryon (Phonenix M) cores clocking at 3.53 GHz alongside an Adreno 830 GPU.

Xiaomi might pair it with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 1 TB of UFS 4.0 storage.

In terms of camera, Xiaomi Ultra has been pretty good at meeting expectations. The 15 Ultra will likely sport a Samsung ISOCELL HP9 1/1.4” image sensor. The upper right section of the circle features the periscope module. This upgraded periscope zoom lens offers impressive specifications, including a 200 MP resolution, a 4.3x optical zoom, and an f/2.6 aperture with up to 100x AI-driven hybrid zoom.
