TL; DR
- Clear specs for Xiaomi 12 Ultra posted online.
- Looks like a new chipset and a slightly better screen could be the only major upgrade.
The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra marks the company’s first serious entry into the ultra-premium market, delivering a flagship phone with lots of features you can expect from a € 1,200 device.
The Chinese brand is expected to launch the Xiaomi 12 Ultra later this year, with frequent tipstar Yogesh Brar. Post A list of glasses on Twitter. Check out a screenshot of the tweet below.

Probably the most notable upgrade claimed here is the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset. However, it also seems that last year’s QHD + 120Hz OLED screen is now using LTPO technology for better efficiency.
Unfortunately, it also looks like the phone is getting a bit smaller battery and a bit slower wireless charging. Offering a 5,000mAh battery and 67W wireless charging, the 4,800mAh battery and 50W wireless charging are rumored features compared to last year’s phone.
What we thought: Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Review – More Strategy Than Gim
Otherwise, it looks very similar to all Mi 11 Ultra. That means 8GB or 12GB RAM, 256GB or 512GB storage, and a 20MP selfie camera.
The Xiaomi 12 Ultra also seems to retain the rear camera setup of its predecessor at first glance, such as a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilization, a 48MP Ultravide camera, a 48MP 5x periscope camera, a time-of-flight sensor and laser photo. Xiaomi could potentially offer new image sensors, but we’ll have to wait and see. The company also said that the first phone will be launched in July as part of a partnership with camera firm Licor, so it is theoretically possible that this device is questionable.
Although there is no word on features like IP68 rating and that secondary rear screen. We would be disappointed if the phone misses the previous one, as it is expected to have an ultra-premium price tag. We expect the company to do better in terms of availability, as the Mi 11 Ultra has probably seen a limited release due to the global chip shortage.
