Xiaomi 13 Ultra renders show a chunky camera bump

11 April 2023
It's a two-level bump again, but this time Xiaomi is trying to blend the lower level more smoothly into the back.

Amit05, 11 Apr 2023Yes, we need more chunkier, heavier, and bigger phones. If you want good cameras, yes, that comes at the price of a heavier phone. Obviously.

            I dont see a problem with this camera side being so thick.
            It's like if you want a good camera phone then this is something you should expect and not complain about.

            Take it like Nokia Lumia 1020 that had camera island as bump.
            Or Nokia 808 PureView that is a bit thicker then this Xiaomi 13 Ultra on the camera bump.

            I kind of remember that there was also a phone that had the digital camera zoom objective in the rear that was built in the phone.

              Should revive and continue xiaomi max series :/

                      Ew

                        Certainly an interesting, but nice looking design.
                        I reckon there probably will be a few bits of text on the camera bump like last year (plus Leica branding).

                        Also, damn, it thicc.

                                      MATE 30 PRO, 11 Apr 2023I have a question. Is Xiaomi's current MIUI softwa... moreI also wanted to know if anyone is using xiaomi 13 pro and what are their opinions. As per YT testing reviews (not fake & paid ones), I observed that 13 pro was so unstable and crashing in 4k video recording to any high end performance task. Temperature was raised upto 48°c. Not good for heavy users, but okay for moderate usages. That's how miui is right now I guess.

                                        Of course will be camera island thick, unlike foldables, this is how phones are made with camera-first way.
                                        Now it mat be 50mp 5x, but there are also rumors about something like 1/1.4" 200mp, may not be exact tho.
                                        Anyway I hope that besides main and superwide cameras, tele camera field gets heated up too.
                                        3x 200mp would be heaven, with right processing.
                                        I will need to upgrade my laptop tho, processing not build for that resolusion.
