We’ve already heard a lot about the Xiaomi 12 series, with leaks revealing the 12 Ultra’s large camera module and renders giving us an idea of how the normal 12 will look. Xiaomi is now preparing to make these phones public, as the firm announced on Weibo (via XDA Developers) that its new flagship series will be available in China on December 28.
Initially, the series will consist of at least two phones, the Xiaomi 12 and the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, but if previous lineups are any indication, a few additional models, such as a more cheap Xiaomi 12X, may be released in the near future. The series will premiere alongside MIUI 13, Xiaomi’s latest generation of its own skin on top of Android, according to the company’s CEO Lei June.
Aside from that, we haven’t heard much about the new flagship series from the company. Only Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip will power the flagships, and the graphic hints that one of the phones, most likely the 12 Ultra, would be substantially larger than the other.
A few more significant details have surfaced as a result of rumors and leaks. The Xiaomi 12 is said to have a 50MP camera, an OLED display with a high refresh rate, and 100W fast charging. The enormous camera array on the 12 Ultra reminds us of a washing machine, and it’ll reportedly have technology comparable to its smaller sister, including a QHD+ high-refresh rate screen, 120W fast charging, and a 5,000mAh battery.
