Such official sample images will always show smartphone camera systems at their absolute best, of course, but we have reason to believe that these could be pretty special.
Xiaomi has been knocking it out of the park with its camera tech in recent years. We’ve named the Xiaomi 17 Ultra as one of the best camera phones on the market today, trailing behind only the Oppo Find X9 Ultra.
It’s fair to say that we’re pretty interested to see what Xiaomi has in store for us at tomorrow’s event, even if it is mostly all out in the open at this point.
