Enhanced Durability Features
Xiaomi emphasizes the improved durability of the 14 Ultra, stating that its middle frame is twice as resistant to bending, the screen is ten times more drop-resistant, and the back panel, crafted from Kona leather, is six times more resistant to wear compared to the 13 Ultra model. The brand has also revealed that the device has obtained SGS five-star durability certification.
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra will be available in color options such as black and white, with official images hinting at a leather back for these variants. Additionally, rumors suggest that a blue variant may feature a ceramic back. Speculations are circulating that the highest configuration of the device will offer a special titanium frame option.
These anticipated upgrades in battery life, durability, and design elements make the Xiaomi 14 Ultra a compelling device to watch out for in the competitive smartphone market. Stay tuned for the official unveiling of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra and the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro at Xiaomi's launch event.
