Xiaomi 15 Ultra leaks in hands-on image

Xiaomi's upcoming 15 Ultra is getting a global release just like its predecessor, an exec recently confirmed. The phone will be made official next month at the earliest, and ahead of that today it's time to see it in a live hands-on image for the first time.

A tipster on X has shared the image you can see below, purportedly depicting the Xiaomi 15 Ultra's back in all its glory.

The camera island is huge like it was in the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, but the sensors, LED flash array, and Leica branding all occupy new spots. The frame also seems to have been redesigned as to not flow into the rear like the 14 Ultra's did. This one looks way more in line with what we've seen from other device makers recently.

As you can see, the camera island has a red ring around it, and this black colorway has a textured glass finish which may or may not sparkle when light hits it.

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra has been rumored to sport a 200 MP periscope telephoto camera, another 50 MP short-range telephoto, a 1-inch type main camera using the Sony Lytia LYT-900 sensor, and a 50 MP ultrawide using Samsung's ISOCELL JN5. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, and will run Android 15 with Xiaomi's HyperOS 2 on top. The phone should have a 6,000 mAh battery with support for 90W wired and 50W wireless charging too.
