The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is set to debut at the end of this month in China. With the launch approaching, the rumour mill is expected to reveal concrete details about the device. A new image of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, inspired by Leica cameras, has surfaced on Chinese social media platforms today. It showcases an interesting dual-tone design, evoking the feel of a professional photography experience.
Xiaomi 15 Ultra image leaked
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra shown in the image above appears to be inspired by the design of the Leica M1 rangefinder camera. Like the Leica camera, the 15 Ultra features a stunning silver-black dual-tone finish, likely made of glass and leather.
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra features a massive round camera module occupying almost the entire top half of the device. It houses a pill-shaped LED flash, a Leica logo, and four cameras, including a periscope telephoto camera. Considering that the device may pack a 6,000mAh battery, its weight could be well above 200 grams.
The fine text below the Leica branding, which reads “LEICA VARIO-SUMMILUX 1:1.63-26/14-100 ASPH,” gives a fair idea of the camera capabilities of the 15 Ultra. The Xiaomi flagship features a Leica Summilux lens with a main camera aperture of f/1.63, the same as its predecessor, mentions tipster Experience More.
The periscope telephoto lens has an f/2.6 aperture, a 100mm equivalent focal length, an effective aperture of f/9.828, and a physical focal length of 26.4mm—comparable to Samsung’s previous 10x zoom implementation. The ultra-wide-angle lens has a 14mm focal length, making it slightly narrower than the previous generation.
For reference, Vivo’s equivalent aperture is f/10.09 with a 22.49mm focal length, while the industry’s largest equivalent aperture for a telephoto lens belongs to Honor at f/7.1.
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is expected to debut with the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra car on Feb. 28 in China.
