The latest information from renowned leaker @digitalchatstation unveils exciting details about Xiaomi’s upcoming flagship, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Described as a “remade” product, the smartphone boasts a Leica-branded quad-camera setup, promising “unexpected new unique skills.” The device reportedly incorporates Xiaomi‘s self-researched technologies, spanning communications, materials, batteries, and more.
However, the improvements come at a cost, with the Bill of Materials (BOM) estimation indicating a price increase. It signals a departure from the pricing of the predecessor, Xiaomi 13 Ultra.
The BOM cost of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra reportedly increased by more than 700 Yuan (~$100)
The focal point of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra’s camera system is the Leica optical full-focus quad-camera setup. While specific details about the unique skills remain undisclosed, the collaboration with Leica suggests a focus on delivering exceptional imaging capabilities. The incorporation of new self-researched technologies in communications, materials, and batteries indicates Xiaomi’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation. DCS emphasizes that these advancements will be implemented for the first time on the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
In terms of cost and pricing, the BOM (Bill of Materials) cost increase of more than 700 yuan (~$100) implies an inevitable price hike for the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Despite potential concerns about the impact on consumer affordability, the tipster suggests that such enhancements are justified for a flagship device. Additionally, DCS expresses Xiaomi’s internal confidence in the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, noting that mass production has already commenced, and the release is anticipated earlier than initially expected.
Moreover, @digitalchatstation hints at a slew of “imaging flagships” in Xiaomi’s lineup, with one expected in February and three tentatively scheduled for March. While specific model names are not disclosed, this information adds to the anticipation surrounding Xiaomi’s upcoming releases.
