Xiaomi 15 Ultra gets an official teardown video ahead of launch

2025-02-26

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is going to become official in China tomorrow along with the SU7 Ultra EV, and for global markets on March 2. Ahead of the announcements, the company has been teasing the device a lot, and today it"s even published an official teardown video of the phone.

You can see the video embedded below, do however note that it"s in Chinese. Still, we can look at the handset and its huge cameras in detail.

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra will have a 200 MP periscope telephoto camera using Samsung"s ISOCELL HP9 sensor, first seen in the vivo X100 Ultra last year (and since adopted by the X200 Pro; it should also feature in the upcoming vivo X200 Ultra).

Xiaomi will equip this camera with a specially designed 24-layer ultra-low reflection glass, which apparently reduces reflectivity to just 1.5%. This also aids in scratch resistance.

The main camera will once again use a 1" type sensor, just like the 15 Ultra"s predecessors. These details have already been officially confirmed. The rumor mill says the phone will be powered by Qualcomm"s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
