Following the company’s confirmation of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra camera sensors, the company’s CEO has just confirmed the addition of variable aperture too.
The Xiaomi 13 Ultra will offer variable aperture, the company’s CEO just confirmed
Lei Jun went to Twitter to confirm that the Xiaomi 13 Ultra’s 1-inch main camera will include variable aperture. He also added that it’ll have a span between f/1.9 and f/4.0, which are great news.
Variable aperture is exactly what that 1-inch camera sensor needs, so that you can jump between that creamy bokeh at f/1.9, to an entirely different scenario at f/4.0. Not to mention that this feature will allow the phone to adapt to different light settings with ease.
That 1-inch camera sensor on the phone is outstanding, but it allows for a lot of light to enter, so it can be a bit difficult to balance the shot sometimes. Well, the addition of variable aperture will definitely help out with that.
The Xiaomi 13 Ultra will become the very first phone out there to offer variable aperture on a 1-inch camera sensor. Huawei used variable aperture on the Mate 50 Pro, though on an entirely different sensor, and that phone provides outstanding photos.
All camera sensors on the phone have been confirmed, at least as far as rear-facing cameras go
As mentioned earlier, Xiaomi already confirmed that the main camera on the phone will be a 1-inch unit from Sony. Sony’s IMX989 sensor, in case you were wondering. The other three cameras will utilize the Sony IMX858 sensor. We’ll get ultrawide, telephoto, and periscope telephoto cameras. All that with Leica lenses, of course.
The Xiaomi 13 Ultra will become official on April 18, and it’s coming to both China and global markets. We also know that it will be fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, and supports 90W wired and 50W wireless charging. It will likely use the same 6.73-inch QHD+ AMOLED display as the Xiaomi 13 Pro, with an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate.
