Xiaomi's latest Xiaomi 15 smartphone has gained market recognition and sales have been steadily increasing. However, for photography enthusiasts, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is the product they are most concerned about. Currently, there are rumors that the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will officially launch in early 2025. With the phone receiving certification, its official release is getting closer. Additionally, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra has been officially certified to support satellite communication.
Recently, the latest news is that the Xiaomi 15 Ultra has obtained China Compulsory Certification (3C) and supports 90W fast charging.
Therefore, in terms of fast charging, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra continues to maintain the 90W fast charging specification. For flagship phones, a fast charging specification of less than 100W may seem insufficient. However, as long as the battery capacity is large enough, 90W fast charging will not be a major concern. With the Xiaomi 15 series fully adopting the new generation Jinshajiang battery, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra's battery capacity is undoubtedly substantial, with a 6000mAh battery being foreseeable.
By the way, the reason for not adopting 120W fast charging is likely related to the use of new electrode materials, as technical limitations currently prevent ultra-high-speed fast charging from being achieved.
Another noteworthy point is that the certification information reveals the product name as "Satellite Mobile Terminal," confirming its support for satellite communication.
According to recent leaks, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will come standard with Tiantong satellite calling, and the top-end version will also support Beidou satellite messaging. This will be Xiaomi's first Beidou communication model.
In terms of satellite communication, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will come standard with Beidou satellite messaging. Additionally, the 16GB + 1TB version of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will support a dual-satellite solution combining Beidou satellite messaging and Tiantong satellite calling.
It is not surprising that the Xiaomi 15 Ultra supports satellite communication, as its predecessor, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, was the first top-tier Xiaomi imaging flagship to support satellite messaging. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra can use Tiantong satellites orbiting the Earth and is equipped with a dedicated signal enhancement chip, improving connection speed and reliability, aiding in faster satellite acquisition, and enhancing overall performance. Users will be able to send and receive messages and make phone calls via satellite networks.
Of course, imaging remains the phone's biggest highlight. The primary camera features a new 1-inch 50-megapixel sensor, offering faster speeds, more stable video recording, and enhanced video capabilities, which will be a key area of focus for future Android flagships.
The telephoto lens is a key upgrade for the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, featuring a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, likely using the Samsung ISOCELL HP9 sensor.
The HP9 boasts a large 1/1.4-inch sensor size, combined with 4x4 pixel binning technology, enabling clear long-distance shots even in low light conditions.
There is also a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a new custom portrait lens (portrait telephoto), creating a more powerful master algorithm.
In summary, the camera configurations exposed for the Xiaomi 15 Ultra are as follows:
5x Periscope Telephoto Lens: The Xiaomi 15 Ultra adopts a 200MP 4.3X 100mm f/2.6 Samsung 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP9 sensor with a massive 1/1.4-inch sensor size. It can produce clear and bright 12-megapixel photos in low light conditions, with individual pixel sizes reaching 2.24 μm.
Primary Camera Lens: Equipped with a 50Mp 23mm f/1.6x Sony LYT900 sensor, featuring a massive 1-inch sensor size, OIS stabilization, and a longer physical focal length than previous generations.
3x Portrait Telephoto Lens: Uses a 1/2.5-inch 50MP Sony IMX858 sensor with a 70mm 3X portrait telephoto solution, f/1.8 aperture, 11.51mm physical focal length, OIS stabilization, and nearly full-frame shooting capabilities.
Ultra-Wide-Angle Lens: Equipped with a 50MP Samsung S5KJN5 sensor with a 1/2.75-inch sensor size.
Overall, the imaging hardware of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra represents the pinnacle of the current mobile phone industry and is the culmination of Xiaomi's three generations of high-end imaging technology.
In addition to its core specifications, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra features a 2K equal-depth curved screen, supports single-point ultrasonic fingerprint unlocking, and offers a variety of color options including black, white, green, and red. The new phone also adopts an integrated ceramic body design, paired with glass fiber and right-angle metal frames. The rear camera module continues the centered circular design style while removing the Parisian nailhead elements, resulting in an expected improvement in overall texture and feel.
Finally, according to leaks, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will be released in January of next year, significantly earlier than expected. Xiaomi may also bring forward its release to boost mobile phone sales during the Spring Festival.
With that, after discussing the latest leaks on the Xiaomi digital series, let's turn our attention to Xiaomi's Civi series and new tablet products.
According to bloggers, the next-generation Xiaomi Civi 5 series is expected to usher in a new positioning, featuring the Snapdragon 8s Ultimate processor for the first time, with an anticipated release in the first quarter of next year.
The blogger previously revealed that the Xiaomi Civi 5 series will have a new positioning, focusing on high aesthetics while also achieving comprehensive upgrades in tone mapping, front camera performance, and overall performance.
Meanwhile, the blogger previously disclosed that Xiaomi is expected to launch a new tablet device powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 processor. Featuring an integrated all-metal body and positioned as a gaming tablet, its screen size is expected to be slightly smaller than mainstream products.
However, there is currently limited information available about this tablet. Interested individuals can stay tuned for future updates.
Overall, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra demonstrates top-tier configurations in imaging, performance, and satellite communication, and is expected to be the pinnacle of Xiaomi's high-end series.
