As Xiaomi's car manufacturing plan progresses, the iteration and upgrade of Xiaomi phones are also attracting much attention. Recently, there have been constant leaks about the new Xiaomi 15 series phones, giving us a glimpse into the true appearance of this annual flagship.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Takes the Stage, Performance Reaches New Heights

According to the latest news, the entire Xiaomi 15 series will be the first to be equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor. This chip breaks through the 4GHz barrier in CPU frequency. Engineering samples have scored 2884 points in single-core and 8840 points in multi-core benchmark tests, demonstrating impressive performance. Compared to the previous generation Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 boasts a stronger performance advantage in multi-core applications, providing users with a smoother and more realistic graphic processing experience. However, there are also rumors that the price of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will increase by 25% to 30%, which might affect the final price of the Xiaomi 15 series.

Battery Life Upgrades, Continuous Breakthroughs in the Imaging System

Apart from the robust performance, the Xiaomi 15 series has also undergone comprehensive upgrades in battery life and imaging. It is reported that the Xiaomi 15 standard version will adopt a 6.3-inch 1.5K small-sized straight screen, a 50-megapixel super-large sensor + vertical telephoto lens on the rear, and the battery size will remain the same as the previous generation, but the specific capacity is yet to be determined. Notably, the device will support wireless charging and high-specification dust and water resistance features.

The Xiaomi 15 Pro will be equipped with a 6000mAh battery, supporting 90W wired fast charging, with a body thickness of approximately 8.5mm and a weight of approximately 220g. This model is upgraded with an IMX85X optical zoom periscope telephoto lens and supports the latest AI large model super-resolution algorithm, further enhancing imaging capabilities.

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra will feature a quad-camera system on the rear, including a 4.X-times 200 million pixel telephoto lens and a short telephoto lens, further enhancing the overall strength of the imaging system.

Other Highlights: Surge OS 2.0 Introduces Privacy Protection Features

Besides hardware upgrades, the Xiaomi 15 series has also made improvements in software. Sources reveal that Xiaomi Surge OS 2.0 will introduce a brand new feature aimed at more effectively protecting user security and privacy. This feature can detect nearby hidden cameras based on WLAN search, and when encountering unusual WLAN signals, it will remind users, alerting them to potential monitoring threats in unfamiliar environments like hotels, thereby providing users with enhanced security.

Release Date: Standard and Pro Versions Expected in October, Ultra Version Expected in March-April Next Year

It is understood that the Xiaomi 15 standard and Pro models are expected to be released as early as October this year, while the higher-end Ultra model is expected to be released in March-April next year.

Regarding Fingerprint Recognition Technology Selection: Optical Fingerprint Solution May Replace Ultrasonic Solution

Recently, blogger @DigitalChatStation revealed that the small-steel-cannon fingerprint solution of Snapdragon 8G4 will undergo adjustments. The latest prototype has adopted an optical fingerprint solution, while the single-point ultrasonic solution will be abandoned due to its higher cost. Although the leak did not mention specific models, related speculations suggest that it refers to the Xiaomi 15 series. This adjustment could be for cost balancing or exploring better technical solutions.

Summary:

The new Xiaomi 15 series phones have undergone comprehensive upgrades in performance, battery life, imaging, and software, providing users with a more exceptional experience. However, the price increase of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 might have a certain impact on the final price, and consumers need to make appropriate budget preparations. The final configuration and price information remains to be officially announced. Let's wait and see.
