<\/strong>Today, Xiaomi officially unveiled the new Xiaomi 12S Series \u201cco-engineered with Leica\u201d. This outstanding imaging product series is the first culmination of the Strategic Partnership in Imaging Technology between Xiaomi and Leica. The entire series features different imaging systems jointly developed by Xiaomi and Leica, containing Leica Summicron lenses, and supports Leica imaging profiles, all of which aim to empower individual creators to express their creativity, while retaining the authentic style of Leica imagery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Authentic Leica imagery, Leica\nimaging profiles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In this new era of mobile\nphotography, Xiaomi and Leica have jointly created a new standard for\nsmartphone photography. Combining Leica’s in-depth understanding of optics,\nimage processing, image quality, and Xiaomi’s rich experience in smartphone\ncomputing photography, Xiaomi 12S Series \u201cco-engineered with Leica\u201d offers\nunprecedented smartphone image quality, colors that closely adhere to Leica’s\nsignature look and feel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to help push imaging\ntechnology to new limits, Xiaomi and Leica have co-developed sophisticated\noptical lenses. As the top model, Xiaomi 12S Ultra utilizes Leica’s world-class\noptical design capabilities in its lens system while adhering to their\nstringent optical quality testing standards and implementing Xiaomi’s expertise\nin miniaturizing components to ensure ultra-high resolution, ultra-high light\nsensitivity, reduced dispersion, and lower flare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S\nUltra primary camera adopts an 8P aspheric lens, in order to address common\nphotography issues such as flare, ghosting, and chromatic aberration, the\ncamera module of Xiaomi 12S Ultra also adds anti-glare lens coating, lens edge\nink coating, cyclic olefin copolymer material, and infrared light filter with spin\ncoating technology. Together, these features offer a clearer overall picture\nthat’s consistent across the lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition\nto the advanced optical design, Xiaomi 12S Series \u201cco-engineered with Leica\u201d\nalso utilizes Leica imaging profiles, inheriting Leica’s century-old image\naesthetic and reproducing Leica’s tone and aesthetics with the aid of\ncutting-edge algorithms. For the end user, this means access to two\nphotographic styles: The “Leica Authentic Look” and “Leica\nVibrant Look”, both offering enhanced creative freedom to the\nphotographer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Series \u201cco-engineered with\nLeica\u201d brings authentic \u201cLeica Image Look\u201d to a smartphone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Professional wide-angle camera with a\nsuper-large 1\u201c sensor <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra is equipped with a\nSONY’s IMX989 1″ sensor, implementing a Quad-Bayer pixel array with\nindividual pixel sizes reaching 1.6\u03bcm. After pixel binning, this reaches 3.2\u03bcm,\nreducing noise, extending dynamic range, increasing light captured, and achieving\noverall better imagery in low-light conditions. This sets a new precedent in\nsmartphone cameras, approaching traditional cameras in terms of hardware\nspecifications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra is the first Android\ndevice to support Dolby Vision HDR video recording and playback. Dolby Vision\nenhances your videos with vivid colors, sharper contrast ratio, and richer\ndetails, providing you with vibrant and refined image quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra uses HyperOIS for\nultra-stable performance, offering continuous compensation for movement during\nvideo recording. HyperOIS utilizes the gap between two frames to drive the OIS\nmotor to its original position, giving each frame a full effective range of\nstabilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S and Xiaomi 12S Pro feature\nthe SONY’s IMX707 as their primary sensor, which incorporates both a large\nsensor size and large pixels, at 1\/1.28\u201c and 2.44\u03bcm after pixel binning. With\nthe support of Xiaomi AI Image Solution and Xiaomi ProFocus, these sensors\nachieve fast startup, capture, and continuous capturing. These devices support\nan industry-leading 30fps ultra-fast burst mode, and exceptional low-light\nphotography capabilities. Further, they also implement All-scene snapshot in\ntheir cameras, making it easier to capture the decisive moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Series \u201cco-engineered with\nLeica\u201d has also been designed to be more photographer-friendly in\npost-production. The entire series supports 10-bit RAW format calibrated by\nAdobe Labs, with color correction metadata embedded in the files. When using\nAdobe Lightroom to open photos shot on Xiaomi 12S Series, Adobe Camera RAW\nsoftware will automatically optimize photos based on metadata, providing\nprofessional photographers with a good starting point for post-production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One smartphone, two Xiaomi Surge\nchips<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra \u201cco-engineered with\nLeica\u201d is the first flagship model to be equipped with two proprietary Xiaomi\nSurge chips, Xiaomi Surge P1 fast-charging chipset and Xiaomi Surge G1 battery\nmanagement chipset, offering great improvements in battery management and\noverall user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra supports 67W wired\nfast charging, 50W wireless fast charging and 10W reverse wireless charging. At\nthe core of the Xiaomi Surge Battery Management System, is a 4,860mAh\nsingle-cell silicon-oxygen anode battery and Xiaomi Surge P1 fast-charging\nchipset, which also supports up to a 16A output current with 96.8% conversion\nefficiency. Furthermore, Xiaomi Surge G1 battery management chipset offers a\nslew of battery management algorithms, embedding self-developed battery\nmanagement algorithms to protect the working safety of the battery and monitor\nthe discharge load to accurately predict the available battery life of the\ndevice. Xiaomi 12S Ultra also supports adaptive charging to prevent the battery\nfrom overcharging thereby increasing the number of charge cycles by 25%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Pro features Xiaomi Surge\nP1 fast-charging chipset, 120W wired charging, 50W wireless charging, and a\n4,600mAh single-cell battery, while the Xiaomi 12S offers 67W wired charging,\n50W wireless charging, and a 4,500mAh battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Flagship Performance, Flagship\nDisplay<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As Xiaomi’s latest flagship, Xiaomi\n12S Series \u201cco-engineered with Leica\u201d is powered by the all-new Snapdragon\u00ae 8+\nGen 1 Mobile Platform, built on the TSMC 4nm process. Compared to Snapdragon\u00ae 8\nGen 1, the core area of Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 is 21% smaller, with both the CPU\nand GPU receiving a 10% improvement in performance and a 30% improvement in\nenergy efficiency. This not only significantly reduces the standby power\nconsumption of Xiaomi 12S Series, but also allows for lower heat emission and\npower consumption under high-load computing scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra is equipped with a\nwhole new heat dissipation system, similar to the biological mechanism leaves\non a plant may use to absorb water. This three-dimensional cooling pump is\ningeniously designed with a series of channels, which use a capillary network\nto actively pump cooling liquid condensed at the side opposite of warm areas,\ngreatly improving efficiency and increasing the thermal conductivity of a\nsingle unit by 100%, compared with traditional VC heat dissipation systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaomi 12S Ultra and Xiaomi 12S Pro\nfeature a 6.73 inches AMOLED\ncolor display with E5 luminescent material that deliver a professional level of\ndetail, brightness and color performance, in addition to a peak brightness of\n1500 nits, 2K resolution, P3 color gamut, and 1-120Hz AdaptiveSync Pro.
