The highly anticipated Xiaomi 15 Ultra is set to be unveiled later this month by Xiaomi. Weibo has leaked a poster with the official Chinese launch date, and a hands-on video has shown off the device’s improved camera system and revamped appearance.
The ad claims that at 7 PM (local time) on February 26, Xiaomi will formally unveil the Xiaomi 15 Ultra in China. Soon after, the smartphone is anticipated to be shown during the MWC 2025 tech conference in Barcelona, which is set for March 3–6. According to this schedule, the worldwide launch might happen not long after the China debut.
Features of Xiaomi 15 Ultra
The newest hands-on video confirms what other leaks have hinted at: a quad-camera arrangement that has been revamped with Leica branding and an LED flash that is pill-shaped, as opposed to last year’s circular form. Xiaomi has made a number of noteworthy improvements to the camera system.
In terms of cameras, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will include a 50MP primary sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS), an ultra-wide lens with 50MP Samsung, a telephoto lens with 50MP Sony IMX858 that offers 3x optical zoom and macro mode, and a periscope telephoto lens with 200MP Samsung that offers 4.3x optical zoom. At the same time, the 32MP OmniVision OV32B sensor should improve the quality of both selfies and video calls.
As for the screen, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will have a 6.8-inch AMOLED LTPO panel that is micro-quad-curved, has a 2K resolution, and has a 120Hz refresh rate. This will make watching the screen a breeze and give you a full immersion in the game. Unlocking will be quicker and safer with an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor.
Snapdragon 8 Elite paired with HyperOS 2.0, built on top of Android 15, will power the handset. In China, Xiaomi intends to provide storage with up to 1 terabyte of UFS 4.0 and up to 16 gigabytes of LPDDR5x RAM. A 16GB+512GB variant of the gadget may be available in international regions.
An additional strength is the battery life. A powerful 6,000mAh battery will power the Xiaomi 15 Ultra for hours on end. In addition, it will be able to support 90W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging, positioning it as one of the market’s foremost devices for rapid charging.
One of the most anticipated smartphone releases of 2025 could be the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, due to its state-of-the-art display, strong technology, and premium camera configuration. More details will likely be disclosed at the MWC 2025 event as the official announcement draws near. Xiaomi’s new top smartphone is designed to compete well in the high-end market.
