On August 29, a digital blogger revealed that the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 iteration has a super large cup, and the telephoto materials are relatively strong. The large-bottom periscope has a higher priority than the super large-bottom main camera and is placed in the upper part of the Deco. Judging from the focal length of the engineering machine, the goal is to achieve native-level high quality for the 10x hybrid optical zoom.
Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra
Although the blogger did not name the new phone, based on previous information and netizens’ speculation, the phone should be the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. According to past rules, this phone is expected to be released in the first quarter of 2025 and will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 mobile platform.
It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time that the blogger has revealed the imaging configuration of this phone. Not long ago, the blogger claimed to have touched the early engineering machine of Xiaomi 15 Ultra. He revealed that although Xiaomi 15 Ultra still uses a centered large circular module, the arrangement of the four cameras and dual telephoto lenses has changed a lot, the periscope is super large, and the 50-megapixel main camera looks larger than the previous generation, or it uses a larger aperture or the sensor exceeds one inch.

It is reported that Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra uses a 50-megapixel quad-camera system, and is still focusing on imaging. It is equipped with a 20-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, which has the characteristics of a large sensor and a large aperture. The prototype currently used is equipped with an HP9 sensor, which has a longer physical focal length and supports dual-focus seamless switching and super telephoto functions.
In addition to the enhanced telephoto, there are also reports that Xiaomi Mi 15 Ultra will challenge the iPhone’s dominance in video recording. The phone plans to improve its video recording performance by optimizing the full-focal-length sensors of the four cameras. The professional imaging kit (i.e., the “handle”) will also be significantly upgraded, which is expected to help improve video recording performance.
