The new Sony IMX989 sensor has been co-developed by both Xiaomi and Sony, as per Jun. This, clubbed with the Leica branding can ensure a pretty impressive camera performance. However, only time will tell how this partnership pans out.

This will most likely support a 50MP resolution, along with a 7p lens and OIS. Other camera details still remain unknown. We expect Xiaomi to reveal more details on this before the official launch takes place.

Apart from this, not much is known yet. The Xiaomi 12S series could be powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset and there could be a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 or Dimensity 9000+ chipset for any of the models. We expect the phones to come with a new design and feature the rumored massive circular camera bump at the back.

A number of high-end specs like a 120Hz refresh rate, up to 120W fast charging, and more are also expected. We need to see how the Xiaomi 12S series turns out to be and for this, it’s best to wait until July 4. Stay tuned to this space to know all the details regarding the upcoming Xiaomi phones.
