Qualcomm is expected to announce the Snapdragon 898 flagship chip by the end of this month. Reports suggest that Xiaomi’s next flagship i.e., the Xiaomi 12 powered by the SD898 may go official in December. The lineup may also include other models such as Xiaomi 12 Pro and Xiaomi 12 Ultra. Fresh information suggests that the Ultra could be equipped with Leica engineered cameras.
Since 2019, Huawei has been launching its flagship phones with Leica engineered cameras. The cooperation between Huawei and Leica ended this year with the launch of the Huawei P50 series. In May, tipster Teme claimed that Leica is looking for a new manufacturer for its brand. He also claimed that the brand may partner with Honor, Xiaomi, or Sharp.
A fresh leak by Digital Chat Station suggests that Leica and Xiaomi may have struck a deal for the upcoming Xiaomi 12 lineup. The Chinese tipster recently shared an image of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra, which showed the Leica branding on its secondary display. This indicates that the Xiaomi 12 Ultra may feature Leica optimized cameras.
At present, only a few details are available on the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, which is expected to debut in early 2022. The same tipster had previously claimed that the phone will be sporting three 50-megapixel cameras. One of them could be a 1/1.5-inch periscope zoom lens with 5x optical zoom support.
The Xiaomi 12 Ultra is also expected to feature an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner. In terms of design, it may not too be different from the Xiaomi 11 Ultra.
