Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi 15 Ultra in February this year, and it has already confirmed that the 17 Ultra is debuting next week in China. This indicates that the new flagship is launching much earlier than previously anticipated, shifting the typical release cycle significantly. With the first official teasers appearing online, the question arises whether consumers should hold off on their current purchases to wait for this premium device. Here’s a look at what to expect from the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.
2. Subtle design changes with a refined flagship look
Design changes on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra are expected to be evolutionary rather than radical. Leaks point to a return to a flat display, which should improve ergonomics and reduce accidental touches. The rear camera module is still expected to be circular but may appear cleaner due to the reduced sensor count. It goes without saying that it will carry IP68/69 durability rating like the previous generation.
