Xiaomi 12S Ultra launched with Leica-branded cameras

The 12S Ultra is Xiaomi’s latest flagship phone which comes with high-end hardware and Leica-engineered cameras.

Its display is a 6.73-inch E5 Super AMOLED unit with a 3,200 x 1,440px resolution, AdaptiveSync Pro compatibility, and variable refresh rates between 1Hz and 120Hz.

Its 4,860mAh battery supports both wired and wireless charging at 67W and 50W, respectively.

The latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 with 8GB or 12GB of RAM and 256GB or 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage powers the Xiaomi 12S Ultra. 

However, the main highlight of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra is its camera setup that’s co-developed with Leica.

The primary camera on the 12S Ultra includes a 50MP Sony IMX989 1-inch type sensor. The lens in front of the 1-inch sensor is an 8P element lens, which addresses problems like as flare, chromatic aberration, and ghosting. In addition, lens edge ink coating, cyclic olefin copolymer material, and infrared light filter spin coating technology are also included. 

It is accompanied by two 48MP cameras, one with 5x optical zoom and the other with a 129-degree ultra-wide lens.

The Xiaomi 12S Ultra costs roughly Rs 71,000 in China and we expect it to launch in India soon.
