We’ve got some new custom colors added to the sleek Xiaomi 13 Ultra lineup. Xiaomi introduced its 13 Ultra flagship last month in Black, White, and Olive Green hues, but those aren’t the only ones available in China. Today, three new exclusive color variants were revealed: Starry Sky Blue, Cabernet Orange, and Ginkgo Yellow.
The Chinese tech giant, Xiaomi, put in a feature to the new exclusive color variants of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra, a black aluminum frame. Another difference between the new color options is the camera ring, which now comes in a dark graphite hue rather than the brass option seen in the launch colors.
On May 6, all three new Xiaomi 13 Ultra color variants will be available in limited numbers through Xiaomi China’s official online shop in limited quantities. They will only be available in the 16/512GB configuration for CNY 6,499 ($941). Meanwhile, here’s a detailed rundown of the 13 Ultra features.
Features of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra
Starting from the camera, we’ve got four cameras at the rear. The primary camera features a 50MP 1-inch IMX989 sensor and a 23mm optically stabilized lens with a physical, two-step aperture that allows for the shallowest depth of focus (read blur or bokeh) at f/1.9 and f/4.0 for a sharper image. The sensor bins 1.6 million pixels 4-to-1, yielding 12.5MP pictures with 3.2 million individual pixels.
The other three cameras all employ the new 50MP IMX858 sensor, which has a 1/2.51″ resolution. They include a 75mm f/1.8 OIS 3.2x mid-range zoom, a 5x 120mm camera with a brighter f/3.0 lens, and a 12mm f/1.8 autofocusing ultrawide with 5cm macro focusing capabilities. The 13 Ultra also has a 2x 46mm and 10x 240mm mode choice, thanks to in-sensor-zoom technology. The front-facing 32 MP f/2.0 camera has fixed focus and will bin pixels 4-to-1 for final 8MP images.
While the hardware integration of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra camera is from the collaboration with Leica, it didn’t end there – yes, there are some other interesting features. To begin, there are two camera color science modes, similar to other Leica-branded Xiaomi cameras – Leica Vibrant and Leica Authentic.
Then there’s the new 50MP UltraRAW mode for the primary camera, which offers 14-bit DNG files with built-in multi-frame sharpening, noise reduction, and dynamic range adjustment for more customization. Adobe will supply a Lightroom camera profile.
Fast Shot mode is a handy tool designed specifically for budding street photographers. It enables you to eliminate focusing time from a photograph by choosing a specified focusing distance. Fast Shot will then take a snapshot in 0.8 seconds.
Onto the display, The Xiaomi 13 Ultra has a 6.73-inch 3200x1440px AMOLED screen with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and a touch sampling rate of up to 240Hz. According to Xiaomi, the panel has a maximum brightness of 2600 nits. The phone is equipped with the newest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM. It will be available in 12/256GB, 16/512GB, and 16GB/1TB UFS 4.0 storage configurations.
Equipped with a 5000 mAh battery, you can charge up using a 90W wired charging or 50W wireless. Then there are Xiaomi’s Surge P2 and Surge G1 custom chips to monitor battery life and charging. One would say, fantastic for a smartphone but well, it’s expected, it’s a flagship, and it’s the Xiaomi 13 Ultra.
