Xiaomi has not yet officially announced when it will release its new top-of-the-line smartphones, but earlier reports indicate that the Xiaomi 15 might debut on October 20 in China. Even though that date is still about two weeks away, information regarding the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 flagship devices continues to emerge.
Design Insights
The latest details reveal what the Xiaomi 15 Pro might look like. This information, shared by the well-known leaker @That_Kartikey, includes images showcasing the back design of the flagship phone in three different colors. The renders suggest that the rear design will be similar to that of its predecessor, featuring a square camera module.
Camera Specifications
In addition, the renders imply that the phone will have a three-camera arrangement on its back, much like the Xiaomi 14 Pro. Among the three sensors in the newer version, the main one is expected to be a 50 MP Light Fusion 900 series camera with an aperture of f/1.4. The ultra-wide camera is also reported to be a 50 MP sensor, while the telephoto lens is rumored to be a 50 MP Sony IMX858 that offers 5x optical zoom.
Additional Features
At first glance, it may appear there’s a fourth camera on the back, but a more detailed inspection of the leaked images indicates that it is actually a laser autofocus module. Another noteworthy detail is that the LED flash will be positioned outside the camera module, contrasting with the Xiaomi 14 Pro, where it was located inside the module (Xiaomi 14 is available on Amazon).
The leaked images of the Xiaomi 15 Pro display the smartphone in three colors: silver, white, and black. Furthermore, they suggest that the flagship will be equipped with a Leica Summilux optical lens, which aligns with the company's previous collaborations with Leica for their recent flagship models.
