One of the best-known tipsters out there shared some rather interesting info via Weibo. This information comes from Digital Chat Station, as he teased a mysterious phone with “ultimate narrow bezels”.
A mysterious phone with “ultimate narrow bezels” seems to be coming
He also said that this will be a “heavyweight” phone with a Snapdragon 8 series processor, and he also used the word “flagship”. When he talked about the bezels, he emphasized that he’s talking about bezels on all four sides, so chances are they’ll be uniform.
Dual under-display cameras were also mentioned, and so was 4x telephoto zoom lens. That’s basically everything Digital Chat Station had to share. He did not mention a brand at all, though.
Now, the phone that came to mind first was the Xiaomi MIX 5. Some rumors suggested that the Xiaomi MIX 5 may not launch at all, though. There’s still a chance it might be the MIX 5, or perhaps the Xiaomi 14 Ultra?
Xiaomi could be a company behind this device
On the flip side, there are a lot of other companies from China he could be talking about. Your guess is as good as ours, but Xiaomi is still the first brand on our minds here.
Digital Chat Station did seem quite excited about this phone. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is expected to arrive in late Q1 or early Q2 this year. The device is tipped to include a variable aperture camera on the back, with Sony’s LYT-900 sensor.
Four 50-megapixel cameras are expected on the phone, and a wild rumor even said that one of the phone’s variants could include an under-display camera. That’s another reason why we think the tipster could be talking about the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
That smartphone is also expected to offer blazing-fast wired and wireless charging, and outstanding specs through and through. Even though the a is technically the company’s current flagship, the ‘Ultra’ will trump it.
