Xiaomi 15 Ultra is expected to be launched by the company in the coming months and the handset could make its debut in early 2025, based on the company's release schedule for its previous flagship phones. While there's no word from Xiaomi about the arrival of a successor to the 14 Ultra model, a Chinese tipster has suggested key details about the device. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is tipped to be available in three different rear panel materials. Qualcomm's unannounced Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset is expected to power the purported flagship phone. It is tipped to feature a 2K resolution display with micro-curves on all sides.

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, according to the tipster. It could feature an 'ultra-narrow equal-depth quad-curved screen' with a 2K resolution. It is tipped to carry a circle-shaped camera island, that could resemble the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
