Xiaomi 12s shows up for the first time: there is the Leica logo on the back

There would be the intention to inaugurate the new prestigious partnership with Leica in the best way. And not by uncorking a bottle of champagne, but in the only way contemplated by one of the most volcanic smartphone manufacturers in the panorama which is Xiaomi, that is immediately launching new products.

So July would be the month designated by the top of the Shenzhen company to show off the Leica brand for the first time on the back of a new generation of top of the range. On the contrary, “half” generation: from the current Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro we will not pass to the 13 and 13 Pro – for those we will probably have to wait until the end of the year – but to 12s and 12s Pro.

FIRST PUBLIC RELEASE FOR XIAOMI 12S

According to rumors there would be this in the short term future of the company, which would thus propose a update of the tops presented in the last Christmas period. Of course, the prestigious Leica signature on the camera group, which can be clearly seen in the image circulated on Weibo in the past few hours, would not be a minor novelty, and it risks bringing with it the disapproval of those who, just six months earlier, had trusted to Xiaomi by purchasing 12 or 12 Pro at prices that are not very high but still high.

But anyhow, Xiaomi’s restlessness certainly does not discover it now. The finished image on Weibo would portray Xiaomi 12s: the model code stamped on the plate applied on the back is the same as that published in April by the IMEI database on Xiaomi 12s. And after all, the smartphone is identical to the 12 “standard”, except – in fact – for the Leica logo.

For the latest rumors, Xiaomi 12s should arrive with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 which debuted in recent days, while the other innovations are navigated on sight. Scheduled presentation, as mentioned above, a July.

In the opening image, Xiaomi 12 and 12X.
