According to a new post from noted leaker Digital Chat Station, Xiaomi is planning to release its 2025 flagship, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, earlier than usual. If all goes well, the phone will launch in January.
Xiaomi hopes to attract a wider group of buyers with its flagship next year and possibly compete with Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Ultra, which is also expected to be released in January.
Xiaomi’s Ultra models usually launch a few months before they hit the global market, but next year could be different.
The trend has been going on for a while now. The Xiaomi 12S Ultra came out in July, the 13 Ultra in April, and this year’s 14 Ultra was released in February. So a new release in January might not be so far-fetched.
