The Xiaomi 13 Ultra is Finally Available Globally with Higher Price Tag

Xiaomi has recently launched the highly anticipated Xiaomi 13 Ultra in Europe, a flagship smartphone with an array of impressive camera-related perks. The phone is equipped with four 50MP cameras, led by a one-inch IMX989 main camera with a dual-stage variable aperture capable of switching between ƒ/1.9 and ƒ/4.0. 

This functionality allows users to choose between a shallow or deep depth of field while capturing photos and getting closer to their subjects without losing quality.

In addition to the main camera, the Xiaomi 13 Ultra boasts a 50MP 3.2x portrait lens, a 50MP 5x periscope camera, and a 50MP ultrawide camera with a 122-degree field-of-view. These lenses collectively deliver improved long-range zoom capabilities over the previously released Pro model.

Cutting-Edge Specifications

Alongside its fantastic cameras, this premium smartphone is packed with additional high-end features like:

• Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor
• A striking 6.73-inch QHD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 2,600 nits peak brightness
• A generous 5,000mAh battery

The device also supports fast charging – a full battery recharge takes only 35 minutes using the provided 90W wired charger or through compatible wireless chargers offering up to 50W output capacity.

Xiaomi 13 Ultra Price and Availability

The Xiaomi 13 Ultra is exclusively available in the European market for €1,499 (~$1,616), with green or black color options. The phone’s hefty price tag makes it more expensive than its sibling Xiaomi 13 Pro, and even puts a €100 (~$108) premium over the base Galaxy S23 Ultra model.

However, the Xiaomi 13 Ultra has an impressive 12GB/512GB configuration as standard, while the equivalent S23 Ultra model originally launched for €1,579 (~$1,702). 

Those looking for a top-of-the-line smartphone with premium camera features should keep this new device from Xiaomi on their radar.
