With the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro were introduced in China in October of last year. On February 25, Xiaomi will launch these flagship smartphones in markets outside of China. The eagerly anticipated Xiaomi 14 Ultra is also anticipated to make its debut during the worldwide launch event, but we get to see the phone up close in a real picture before that happens. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra’s back camera arrangement and design are emphasised in the purported live image.

The rumoured live image of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra has arrived on Weibo, thanks to tipster Digital Chat Station (which is a translation from Chinese). The phone looks to be in line with a couple other brands’ flagship models. The image presents a hazy image of the gadget in an off-white colour scheme with a circular camera module that is similar to the Xiaomi 13 Ultra’s design from the previous year.

Our first peek at the Xiaomi 14 Ultra came via a series of hands-on images that were made public early in January. The previous leak had the Leica branding and a larger camera island.

Four 50-megapixel sensors make up the rumoured quad rear camera system of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The primary camera on the camera unit may be Sony’s most recent LYT900 1-inch sensor, which has an f/1.63 aperture. A 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and 2K resolution is anticipated.

The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is anticipated to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, just like the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro. It is rumoured to have an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint reader for authentication along with slightly curved panels. A 5,180mAh battery that supports 50W wireless charging and 90W wired charging may power the phone.

The global release date of the Xiaomi 14 series was recently confirmed by Xiaomi. Just before MWC, on February 25, the phones will be unveiled in Barcelona.
