Xiaomi launched the 12S Ultra earlier this year in China. The company confirmed that the 12S Ultra will remain exclusive to its home country and will not launch in global markets. Xiaomi, at the time of the announcement, did not reveal any reason as to why it did not intend to launch the 12S Ultra outside China. For those who want to try and get their hands on the Ultra experience, Xiaomi has confirmed that the next top-end flagship, likely the Xiaomi 13 Ultra, will debut in global markets.
The news comes straight from Xiaomi’s top chief Lei Jun, who took to Twitter to confirm the global launch. Jun did not reveal the name of the upcoming flagship smartphone. However, we can expect Xiaomi to launch the phone as the 13 Ultra.
Based on the upgrade cycle, it is safe to expect the Xiaomi 13 Ultra will debut in Q2 or Q3 of 2023. This means that we are many months away from the official launch of the next Ultra phone. It could be possible that Xiaomi will launch the phone with the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, which is set to debut in November.
The 13 Ultra could also feature Leica-tuned cameras with a 1-inch primary camera. The highlight of the 12S Ultra is its massive 1-inch Sony IMX989 50MP primary camera.
