Since the release of Snapdragon 8 Plus, everyone has been guessing who will launch the Snapdragon 8 Plus. Today the answer is revealed. The first Snapdragon 8 Plus is Xiaomi , which will be released at 7 pm on July 4 Xiaomi 12S series products, according to the official promotion, there will be three products in the Xiaomi 12S series, namely Xiaomi 12S, Xiaomi 12S Pro and Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
Xiaomi 12 S is still positioned as a small-sized all-round flagship, Xiaomi 12S Pro is positioned as a high-end flagship, and Xiaomi 12S Ultra is positioned as an imaging flagship. According to current news, they will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Plus chip. As for whether there is a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chip For the relevant version, everyone can just wait for the official announcement.
Judging from the product configuration revelations, Xiaomi 12S and Xiaomi 12S Pro, compared with the previous generations of , Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro, mainly replace the processor with with better energy efficiency than . In addition, the fuselage will also be marked with It’s called Leica, so the imaging algorithm should be improved to get a better imaging experience.
Xiaomi 12S Ultra is the product that everyone is most looking forward to. As for why it is not called Xiaomi 12 Ultra, there were related products equipped with Snapdragon 8 before, but for a better user experience, related products were not released. Now it is with Xiaomi 12S series Launched together, it would seem a bit incongruous to call it Mi 12 Ultra. And having said that, is it really that important how the product is named?
I won’t talk about the hardware configuration of Xiaomi 12S Ultra. Most of the information has been revealed on the Internet. If you are interested, you can check it out by yourself. What I am most concerned about now is what Xiaomi 12S Ultra looks like and what its imaging part can do. To what extent, what is the cooperation with Leica like?
In terms of appearance, there is a poster focusing on the rear camera part of Xiaomi 12S Ultra. It can be seen that the body should be a ceramic body. The camera module adopts a ring design and is decorated with a golden metal ring on the edge. From the convex part of the camera Judging from the magnitude, the pile of materials in the image must be very fierce. In addition, there is also the English logo of LEICA on the fuselage.
In the promotional picture of Three Arrows, you can see that Xiaomi Mi 12S Ultra has a golden frame, the back of adopts a hyperboloid curvature design, and there is a matrix protruding on the back , and the body material is plain leather. , combined with the information of the two promotional pictures, the appearance of Xiaomi 12S Ultra that was previously revealed online should be reliable.
Regarding the cooperation between Xiaomi and Leica, Lei Jun released a related video to explain. In the video, it was mentioned whether cooperation with Leica will increase the price of the product. Lei Jun said that everyone will know after the release. Judging from this, this time The price should do well.
Regarding the "strategic cooperation" that many people are concerned about, Lei Jun emphasized that the cooperation between Xiaomi and Leica is not an OEM, and engineers on both sides would not agree if this was done. The
video also mentioned that Leica approached Xiaomi for this cooperation because Xiaomi is quite famous in Germany, which also proves that Xiaomi is doing well in overseas markets.
In addition, Xiaomi will not send DXO for testing this time. Regarding this decision of Xiaomi, I personally think it is right. After these years, consumers have stopped using DXO, and manufacturers really do not need to spend energy on DXO.
Generally speaking, Xiaomi 12S series products are worth looking forward to. The energy efficiency of the Snapdragon 8 Plus chip has been significantly improved, which can bring a better daily experience. This is actually worth buying, not to mention this time. We are also cooperating with Leica to achieve better image performance. Just wait until the price is announced at the press conference.
