Xiaomi released a ton of information about its upcoming flagship, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The company recently confirmed that the phone will launch on February 25 globally, during MWC 2025. Well, now the company has confirmed that the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will get an initial launch on February 22 in China.
The initial Xiaomi 14 Ultra launch event was confirmed, design & cameras too
The event will start at 7 PM China time on February 22, which equals noon CET, 11 AM BST, 6 AM EST, and 3 AM PST time. By the time the phone gets announced in China, we’ll have all the necessary information for global markets. Well, aside from its global price and RAM + storage combos.
The original launch event is not all that Xiaomi announced, though. The company also confirmed the design of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Xiaomi shared quite a few renders of the phone via social media, showing us both colors of the device. You can check them out below.

The phone will launch in black and white colors
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra will launch in Black and White colors. Both phones will be made out of metal and vegan leather. There is even a special edition titanium variant rumored, but we’re still not sure about that.
In any case, the vegan leather will be used on the back, while a large circular camera island will sit on the back too. That camera island does look very similar to the one on the Xiaomi 13 Ultra. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra won’t have the gradual rise of thickness on the back, though, like the Xiaomi 13 Ultra did.
In addition to all this, Xiaomi also shared some camera details. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra will feature a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-900 main camera. It will support variable aperture between f/1.63 and f/4.0.
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra will include two periscope telephoto cameras
The phone will also have two periscope telephoto cameras. One 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera will utilize the Sony IMX858 sensor, have an f/1.8 aperture, 75mm focal length, and offer a 3.2x optical zoom. The other 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera will also utilize the Sony IMX858 sensor and will have an f/2.5 aperture, 120mm focal length, and support 5x optical zoom.
We still don’t have official information about the ultrawide camera. That camera will also be a 50-megapixel unit, though. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will fuel the phone, and other high-end specs are also expected. We’ll get far more details in a couple of days.
