The Xiaomi 17 Ultra: A Strange Time for a Flagship Launch
The upcoming release of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra has caught the attention of tech enthusiasts, as it is set to launch at an unconventional time of year.
Earlier this year, Xiaomi unveiled its latest flagship smartphone series in China, which includes the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Pro. While the global launch was expected in the New Year, the highly anticipated Xiaomi 17 Ultra has been a topic of speculation among fans.
Rumors suggest that Xiaomi will announce the release of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra on December 26, with pre-orders starting between December 15 and 25. This announcement date falls on Boxing Day, a time when many around the world are usually relaxing and enjoying the holiday season.

Despite the unusual timing of the launch, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is expected to maintain a similar pricing structure to its predecessor, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. While the price tag of £1,299 may seem steep, fans will be relieved that there is no significant increase in cost.
One of the standout features of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra will be its new 1-inch main camera sensor, promising impressive photography capabilities. Additionally, the smartphone is anticipated to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, delivering top-notch performance similar to the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Pro.
