This spring, Xiaomi released its 12-series flagships in the Netherlands and Belgium. On Androidworld you could read all our reviews of the cheaper Xiaomi 12X and the high-end 12 Pro. But Xiaomi has even more plans for the fall, because on July 4, it will present the Xiaomi 12S series in China, which will be the first to work with Leica cameras.

On Chinese social media, Xiaomi already shows a teaser with the inscription “Xiaomi 12S series and the launch date. We already see three phones and they are a Xiaomi 12S, a 12S Pro and a 12S Ultra. The first is a small flagship, the second is larger with high-end specs and the Ultra variant is the top-of-the-line model.

Teaser of the Xiaomi 12S series

The German camera company Leica and Xiaomi presented their camera collaboration at the end of May. Then they already announced that a new top phone will be arriving in July with a Leica camera and there was already speculation about the arrival of the Xiaomi 12 Ultra. It will also come, but under the name ‘Xiaomi 12S Ultra’. What is striking based on the teaser image: the 12S UItra does not match the renders we saw earlier of the expected Xiaomi 12 Ultra. The Chinese company may have gone to the drawing board again to adapt the design to a new camera setup developed together with Leica.
