Xiaomi has just unveiled an interesting new smartphone that it has been working on. The device in question is the Xiaomi 12S Ultra Concept Edition, which features a unique rear camera setup that includes an attachable Leica lens for enhanced photography.

The Chinese tech giant has just shared a new teaser video and image poster on its official Weibo account. Looking at these teasers, we can see that the upcoming handset is a high end model with a clear emphasis on camera photography. The teasers on the Chinese microblogging website state that the new smartphone will feature a 1 inch primary camera sensor on the back. However, this sensor will be further complimented by a dedicated Leica M series lens, which is detachable from the large rear camera module.

As per official notes, Xiaomi is the first to install a full Leica camera lens on a smartphone to enhance the photography performance of the new 12S Ultra Concept edition. The company claims that the new lens will help the device offer both a flagship level smartphone experience as well as a professional photography tool. While finer details of the device is still unclear, the brand’s CEO Lei Jun shared some details regarding the cameras. The 12S Ultra Concept apparently offers two 1 inch sensors with one being a regular sensor found on smartphones, while the one in the middle of the module is paired with the external lenses.

Furthermore, the module also houses an ultra wide angle lens as well, however, there is no zoom lens. The magnification ability might just be offered by the external lens as well. As of right now, this is all the details that the company has shared online. We can expect more teasers and leaks to surface soon, so stick around for more updates regarding this matter.
