Back in December, Xiaomi debuted the Xiaomi 13 series in China. Like the previous years, the company did not release the Ultra model alongside the vanilla and pro variants.

The Xiaomi 13 Ultra was recently tipped to launch in April with up to 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. This smartphone now seems to have been spotted in the IMEI database.

A mysterious Xiaomi-branded premium smartphone has appeared in the IMEI database. Xiaomiui suggests that this device could be the upcoming Xiaomi 13 Ultra.

The handset bears model numbers 2304FPN6DG (Global) and 2304FPN6DC (China). It is codenamed “Ishtar”. For those unaware, Ishtar is an ancient Mesopotamian goddess of love, war, and fertility.

MIUI codebase shows that the phone will boot MIUI 14 based on Android 13. It also discloses the chipset, which happens to be Qualcomm SM8550 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2).

Unfortunately, that’s all the information we have on the alleged Xiaomi 13 Ultra through the IMEI database and the MIUI codebase.

Earlier rumors suggest that the device will retain the 50MP Sony IMX989 1-inch camera sensor. The tried and tested main camera will be accompanied by an improved periscope camera. Finally, it will sport a Samsung E6 Super AMOLED display with curved edges.

Officially, Xiaomi had already confirmed that the next-gen Xiaomi Ultra smartphone will be available outside mainland China. Based on the findings discussed above, a global variant does seem to exist.
