Camera hardware is likely to be a key difference between the two. The Ultra variant is tipped to feature a Leica-branded triple camera setup, including a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 200MP telephoto camera. The standard Xiaomi 17 is also expected to carry Leica-tuned cameras, though with slightly different configurations.

Battery capacity is said to be large on both models. The Xiaomi 17 Ultra could pack a 6,800mAh battery with 90W wired and 50W wireless charging support. The Xiaomi 17 may feature a 7,000mAh battery.
