Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leak Reveals Bold New Camera Design — Here’s the First Look
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra hype train has officially left the station, and thanks to a newly surfaced leaked image, we now have our clearest look yet at what Xiaomi might be cooking for its next flagship beast. The photo shows a prototype device wrapped in a protective shell.
Massive Camera Cutouts Suggest Huge Sensor Upgrades:
The most eye-catching part of the leak is the large circular and rectangular cutouts on the back. These openings hint at:
- A giant primary camera sensor, likely a 1-inch or even larger next-gen sensor.
- Multiple secondary lenses, including what seems to be a periscope telephoto.
- Additional openings possibly for laser autofocus, TOF sensor, or mic ports.
This aligns with Xiaomi’s recent trend of pushing camera hardware to extremes and the 17 Ultra looks ready to take it even further.
Prototype Body Confirms Foldable-Like Thickness
The leaked unit appears chunky, which is typical for early engineering prototypes. Don’t worry the final retail version will be sleeker. But the thickness also suggests Xiaomi is packing:
- A larger camera sensor stack
- Large cooling chambers
- A large battery
All the good stuff we love in Ultra flagships.
Why This Leak Matters
Xiaomi’s Ultra models are famous for redefining smartphone photography each year. If this early leak is accurate, the 17 Ultra is already shaping up to be one of the most ambitious smartphone camera designs of 2025.
We’re still waiting for official confirmation, but the excitement is real.
Stay tuned — this is just the beginning.
