A Xiaomi device with model number 25010PN30G surfaced on the Geekbench AI benchmark platform yesterday, which is expected to be the global version of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. The phone comes with Android 15 out-of-the-box. The CPU clock speeds of the chip reaffirms previous reports about the device running on the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip.
As for the NPU capability, we can refer to the Galaxy S25 series, which runs several cutting-edge AI features natively without an issue. However, the actual AI performance only partly depends on the NPU capabilities of the new chip. The implementation of the AI features largely depends on Xiaomi itself.
AI features expected from the Xiaomi 15 Ultra
The phone will be running on Xiaomi’s HyperOS 2.0 skin, which indeed includes some AI features. It includes a writing assistant (that helps people draft emails, messages, and more), a translation tool, an AI Memo Recording feature (that will allow its users to record and transcribe memos based on information gathered through meetings and calls), and an “AI movie lock screen clock” that allows the device to intelligently use the videos captures by the user and convert them into dynamic lock screen clocks. I’m already familiar with almost all the features, and I’m excited to see the last one in action.
As per the CPU and GPU performance of the prototype, previous Geekbench listings have shown promising results: 3180 in single-core and 10058 in multi-core test. This is on par with other performance-focused flagships like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, OnePlus 13, and iQOO 13, all of which use the same chip. So, there’s nothing going considerably wrong with the performance capabilities of Xiaomi’s upcoming camera-centric device.
For those wondering, the camera setup is expected to include Sony’s 1″ Lytia LYT-900 as the main sensor, paired with a 200 MP Samsung ISOCELL HP9 periscope telephoto for long-range zoom and a 50 MP Sony IMX858 telephoto for short-range zoom. We have already seen the 200MP telephoto with the vivo X200 Pro (hands-on), which helps the device outperform the Galaxy S25 Ultra in long-range zoom. That said, the same is also expected with the Xiaomi 15 Ultra.
