This gem should be unveiled in China on February 22 and a few days later it should go global at the MWC (Mobile World Congress) in Barcelona at the end of February. <\/p>\n<p>Let&#39;s leave aside the rest of the technical specifications of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra that have already leaked in recent weeks and instead focus on the latest rumor which concerns the cameras of the flagship. <\/p>\n<h2>The main camera<\/h2>\n<p>According to a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gizmochina.com\/2024\/02\/19\/xiaomi-14-ultra-primary-telephoto-periscope-camera-details-officially-revealed\/\" class=\"external\">Gizmochina<\/a> report that inspects some Chinese promotional posters for the 14 Ultra, Xiaomi will come with the 50-megapixel Sony LYT-900 sensor for the main camera.  This isn&#39;t really news, as we&#39;ve already commented on such a possibility, but it&#39;s nice to see that there are no last minute changes. <\/p>\n<p>Being a one-inch type sensor, the Sony LYT-900 is large and it is the spiritual successor to the incredibly popular and beloved Sony IMX989 sensor (the Xiaomi 13 Ultra, the vivo X90 Pro, the <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/oppo\/\"   title=\"Oppo\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Oppo<\/a> Find &#39;all packed, plus a lot more).<\/p>\n<div>LYT is the abbreviation of LYTIA, and it is the new brand of image sensors for mobile devices developed by SSS (Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation).  It is pronounced &#8220;Lye-tee-ya&#8221;, not Lithya, Lythia or Litya.  It is expected that <span>Xiaomi 14<\/span> Ultra will offer a variable aperture (just like its predecessor, the Xiaomi 13 Ultra) from f\/1.63 to f\/4.0.<\/p>\n<h2>Telephoto lenses<\/h2>\n<p>The report states that <span>Xiaomi 14<\/span> Ultra will feature a 50-megapixel IMX858 sensor for the first telephoto lens \u2013 a 3.2x optical zoom (75mm equivalent focal length) with a large and bright f\/1.8 aperture. <\/p>\n<p>The 14 Ultra&#39;s second telephoto lens will most likely feature the same 50-megapixel Sony IMX858 sensor, but this one could be a 5x optical zoom periscope lens (120mm equivalent focal length) offering an f\/2.5 aperture.<\/p>\n<h2>The wide angle camera<\/h2>\n<p>Xiaomi is yet to confirm details of the 14 Ultra&#39;s ultra-wide lens.  The device will likely inherit the 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with macro photography capabilities that was present on the previous model \u2013 again a Sony IMX858 sensor with an aperture of f\/1.8.<\/p>\n<h2>The Xiaomi 14 Ultra versus the Oppo Find X7 Ultra<\/h2>\n<div>\n<div id=\"gallery-f55edd96-bbfb-4ec2-80a5-5f8c5afe2020\" class=\"single-image-container full-width-element\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item\">\n<picture style=\"padding-top: 56.25%\"><source media=\"(max-width: 350px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 351px) and (max-width: 500px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px)\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Tele-battle-How-does-the-dual-zoom-on-the-Xiaomi-14.jpg\" alt=\"Tele-battle: How does the Xiaomi 14 Ultra&#39;s dual zoom compare to the monster Oppo Find X7 Ultra?\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>In early January, we were excited to see the emergence of the Oppo Find X7 Ultra with TWO periscope zoom cameras.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, the Find  By the way: Xiaomi&#39;s collaboration with Leica is also extremely satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the \u201cOppo Find X7 Ultra vs. <span>Xiaomi 14<\/span> The Ultra Dilemma will be Ultra popular in the coming months (unless you&#39;re super fast and already own the Galaxy <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/s24\/\"   title=\"S24\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">S24<\/a> Ultra, which is one of our favorites).<\/p>\n<p>To recap, here are the expected cameras \u2013 sensors, lenses and apertures \u2013 on the <span>Xiaomi 14<\/span> Ultra:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>LYT-900: main camera, 1-inch sensor, f\/1.63 to f\/4.0 (variable aperture)<\/li>\n<li>IMX858: ultra-wide sensor, 1\/2.51 inch, f\/1.8<\/li>\n<li>IMX858: 3.2x optical zoom (75mm), 1\/2.51-inch sensor, f\/1.8<\/li>\n<li>IMX858: 5x optical zoom (120mm), 1\/2.51-inch sensor, f\/2.5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u2026and here are the insane camera specs of the Oppo Find X7 Ultra:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>LYT-900: main camera, 1-inch sensor, f\/1.8<\/li>\n<li>LYT-600: ultra-wide sensor, 1\/1.95 inch, f\/2.0<\/li>\n<li>IMX890: 3x optical zoom (65mm), 1\/1.56-inch sensor, f\/2.6<\/li>\n<li>IMX858: 6x optical zoom (135mm), 1\/2.51-inch sensor, f\/4.3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/stands\/\"   title=\"stands\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">stands<\/a> out immediately is how much larger the 3x optical zoom camera sensor is on the Find X7 Ultra (1\/1.56 inch) compared to its <span>Xiaomi 14<\/span> Ultra counterpart (1\/2.51 inch).  Oppo claims that the IMX890 is the largest telephoto lens \u201cof all smartphones\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Since sensor size is important when discussing aperture numbers for 3x optical zooms, it&#39;s interesting to see how the &#8220;darker&#8221; lens and larger sensor of the Find magic of Hasselblad software) will work against Xiaomi&#39;s smaller sensor which is coupled with a larger, brighter lens (sprinkled with Leica processing).<\/p>\n<p>The other thing that stands out when comparing these two photo monsters is the brightness of Xiaomi&#39;s secondary optical zoom: f\/2.5 versus f\/4.3 (the sensor size is the same, given that they both use the Sony IMX858).  In simpler terms, the f\/2.5 aperture lets in twice as much (and a little more) light than the f\/4.3 aperture.<\/p>\n<p>More light means better quality, as the scene can be better exposed using a lower ISO (or it might freeze objects moving faster in the dark due to higher shutter speeds).<\/p>\n<p>A wider aperture also means juicier bokeh, so the Xiaomi&#39;s 120mm secondary zoom will be ideal for portraits (don&#39;t let anyone fool you by saying that portraits are only shot in the 50mm focal length range at 75 mm).<\/p>\n<p>Being a 6x, instead of 5x, the Find X7 Ultra&#39;s 135mm camera might be better at capturing nice details (during the day) that are further away from you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>For the finale: the Oppo Find<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Remember!
