In the Weibo post (a Chinese microblogging website), Wang Teng, General Manager at Xiaomi China, shared the time for the virtual live conference. During this event, the official said that a number of surprises are planned to be unveiled. One of this might include more details regarding the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, which will feature the company’s most powerful imaging system. This camera system will include the brand’s self developed imaging algorithm as well. Furthermore, the executive also hinted at the new top end smartphone topping DXOMark listing in the video.

For those unaware, its predecessor, the Mi 11 Ultra, was the first to launch with the GN2 50 megapixel custom sensor that was developed with Samsung. This enabled the device to rank high in the DXOMark rankings, a known camera reviewing platform. So, we might see the latest and greatest from the Chinese tech giant top the list again.
