The Xiaomi 17 Ultra and Xiaomi 17 have the same feature set but slight battery cuts

Barcelona’s MWC 2026 event has begun. Without any delay, the company released the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra on the international market. Their specs aren’t all that shocking because both were available in China prior to MWC. On these foreign versions, they did, however, lower the battery capacity. The specifics are listed below. We consider the Ultra’s camera arrangement to be a technological marvel. They packed a Light Fusion 1050L outsole with LOFIC HDR, a 50MP 1″ type sensor, on the back. This is positioned just next to the 50MP (115°) ultrawide lens. Additionally, the selfie camera has a 50MP resolution. However, the massive 200MP (1/1.4″) periscope telephoto camera on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is far superior to these other lenses. The smooth variable zoom of this sensor ranges from 75 mm to 100 mm. The plateau is more noticeable than normal because all of the cameras are unbelievably large. On the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, the remaining chassis shrinks from 9.4mm to 8.3mm thin. The screen of this new model won’t be as crisp as the 15 Ultra. Although it does allow for greater power savings, they reduced the resolution to 1.5K (2608 × 1200p). It is still a 6.9″ M10 OLED with Dolby Vision/HD10+ rating and LTPO 1-120Hz refresh rate. This time, the local peak brightness has reached a level of 3500 nits. The Xiaomi Ceramic Shield Glass 3.0 has slightly improved drop resistance. The battery on this version of the Global 17 Ultra was actually the hot topic. The initial cell’s capacity was 6800mAh, but it has since been lowered to 6000mAh worldwide. The wireless coil hits a 50W input as it continues to pull 90W from the wall. Naturally, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra sports an additional 2000mAh battery and a camera kit. With twin speakers, Bluetooth 6, WiFi 7, and even an ultrasonic fingerprint ID, the phone has all the flagship features.
