Earlier this week, the long-standing collaboration between Huawei and Leica came to an end, and at the same time, the Chinses smartphone giant announced the beginning of its new partnership with the Germany-based camera company.

Now, just days after the official announcement, a leaked image has emerged online revealing that Xiaomi already has a new device with Leica’s camera technology ready to launch at any moment.

The leak comes from a Weibo tipster and reveals a Xiaomi smartphone, allegedly the Xiaomi 12S, with a Leica branding on the camera module. The back panel of the device looks pretty similar to the already launched Xiaomi 12 Pro and the only difference appears to be the Leica branding in place of the “50MP” etched on the camera module.

Leaks state that we could see the first Leica branded Xiaomi flagship launching in June, which also corroborates the earlier leaks stating that the Xiaomi 12S series is scheduled for June. So let’s take a look at the specs and features of the upcoming devices.

Xiaomi 12S and 12S Pro Specs (Rumored)

The Xiaomi 12S is said to come with a Full HD+ resolution curved panel featuring a 120Hz refresh rate, centered punch-hole, and will be smaller in size. The device will sport a triple camera setup headlined by a 50-megapixel primary camera. It is expected to come powered by the recently announced Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC.

The Xiaomi 12S Pro on the other hand is expected to offer a 2K display panel and launch with SoC variants. These will likely be the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and the Dimensity 9000 SoC.
