The Ultra variant has not been officially announced yet, but several leaks have already revealed what the phone may offer.
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra is expected to come with a large 6.9-inch 2K OLED flat display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It may also get an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor for faster and more secure unlocking.
For charging, the phone will likely support 100W wired fast charging, which should quickly power up the big flagship.

The camera setup on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is one of the most talked-about parts of the leak. It may feature a 50-megapixel main camera with an f/1.6 aperture and new LOFIC technology to cut glare and improve photo clarity.
The phone may also include a 50-megapixel Samsung JN5 ultra-wide lens, a 50-megapixel Samsung JN5 telephoto camera, and a huge 200-megapixel Samsung HPE periscope telephoto sensor with 4×4 RMSC technology for sharper zoom. The front camera may use a 50-megapixel OmniVision OV50M sensor.
