A detailed close-up photograph captures the sophisticated rear camera system of the white Xiaomi 17 Ultra flagship smartphone at the Xiaomi pavilion during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, on March 5, 2026. The prominent circular module, developed in collaboration with Leica, features the Leica Summilux optical lens system. The primary camera utilizes a 50-megapixel 1-inch type Sony IMX989 sensor with a variable aperture of f/1.40 to f/4.0 and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS). Accompanying it are a 50-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens (f/1.8, 122? FOV), a 50-megapixel telephoto lens with 3.2x optical zoom (75mm equivalent, f/1.8, OIS), and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens providing 5x optical zoom (120mm equivalent, f/2.5, OIS). The hardware is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and optimized by the Xiaomi AISP 2.0 computational photography engine, supporting Leica Authentic and Leica Vibrant color modes.
