Xiaomi 16 to get a key camera upgrade
The Xiaomi 15 hasn't even gone global yet, and here we are already talking about its successor. Such is the pace of the mobile world.
A new rumor out of China claims that the 'vanilla' Xiaomi 16 will feature a key camera upgrade over its predecessor: a periscope telephoto shooter.
Xiaomi 15While this will be new to Xiaomi's non-Pro, non-Ultra flagship line, it's quite overdue since both the 'vanilla' vivo X200 and the Oppo Find X8 already have a periscope telephoto camera each, so the Xiaomi 15 is behind in that regard.
Hopefully, its successor will be able to catch up to the competition, although who knows what craziness the vivo X300 and Oppo Find X9 might have in store for us.
Anyway, if this pans out then the entire Xiaomi 16 line - the 16, 16 Pro, and 16 Ultra - will feature periscope zoom cameras.
