Xiaomi has officially launched its latest flagship smartphone, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, in Singapore, marking a significant leap in mobile photography, performance, and design. As part of the Xiaomi 15 Series, the Ultra model is positioned as the ultimate device for photography enthusiasts, creative professionals, and power users seeking an all-encompassing smartphone experience.
The Xiaomi 15 Ultra: Ultimate Device for Photography Enthusiasts
Drawing inspiration from classic camera designs, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra boasts an elegant and refined aesthetic, available in Black, White, and Silver Chrome. The 6.73-inch WQHD+ AMOLED display delivers a resolution of 3200 x 1440 with an impressive 522 ppi pixel density, ensuring razor-sharp visuals and vibrant colours. With a peak brightness of 3200 nits, the screen remains perfectly visible under any lighting condition. Xiaomi has also incorporated an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, enabling quick and reliable unlocking even with wet or dirty fingers.
Photography remains the standout feature of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Equipped with a quad-camera system featuring Leica Summilux lenses, the smartphone covers a wide range of focal lengths from 14mm to 200mm optical zoom, giving users the versatility to capture everything from expansive landscapes to detailed close-ups. The 50MP 1-inch main camera, powered by the Sony LYT-900 sensor, features a ƒ/1.63 aperture and high dynamic range of 14EV, ensuring exceptional low-light performance. A 70mm floating telephoto camera enhances portrait and macro photography, allowing users to focus on intricate details as close as 10cm. A game-changing 200MP ultra-telephoto camera enables ultra-zoom capabilities, while a 14mm ultra-wide lens expands creative possibilities for capturing immersive shots.
Beyond photography, Xiaomi has engineered the 15 Ultra to push the boundaries of mobile videography. The device is capable of 4K slow-motion recording at 120fps, while Dolby Vision® video recording at 4K 60fps ensures stunning cinematic quality. A 10-bit Log video mode is available across all focal lengths, giving professionals greater control over post-production colour grading. The smartphone is also Android’s first ACES Product Partner, ensuring industry-grade colour accuracy, while a 4-microphone array provides immersive directional audio recording for a truly professional filmmaking experience.
Under the hood, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform, delivering a 45% boost in CPU performance and a 52% reduction in power consumption compared to its predecessor. To handle demanding applications such as computational photography, AI processing, and high-performance gaming, Xiaomi has integrated its 3D Dual-Channel IceLoop cooling system, ensuring optimal heat dissipation and sustained peak performance. Running on Xiaomi HyperOS 2, the device introduces a new level of AI-powered efficiency with features such as AI Image Enhancement, AI Speech Recognition, AI Eraser Pro, and Cross-Device Camera Integration, making creative workflows smoother and more intuitive.
Battery life is another key highlight of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Equipped with a 5410mAh Xiaomi Surge Battery, the device ensures all-day performance without compromise. It supports 90W wired HyperCharge, allowing for lightning-fast recharges, while 80W wireless HyperCharge provides added convenience for users who prefer a cable-free experience.
