A source that regularly monitors changes in MIUI and various internal Xiaomi software has pointed out an interesting fact: Xiaomi 12 Ultra was spotted in the IMEI database and with the catalog number 2203121C, which was previously assigned to the Mix line. This leads to the logical conclusion that Xiaomi has canceled the Mix 5 and will be replaced by the Xiaomi 12 Ultra. Although at the beginning of the year the opposite was thought: they said that then there would be no Xiaomi 12 Ultra, and instead the Mix 5 and Mix 5 Pro.

Interestingly, at the same time, the Chinese social network Weibo posted a poster made like official posters of Xiaomi. The source points out that the picture is an obvious fraud, but at the same time, the data it contains may be reliable. It is said that this is how Chinese informants prefer to make plums with the help of a fake poster. By the way, there is no image of the smartphone on it, but there is a Snapdragon logo, and the inscription says that the smartphone uses Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+, which is an improved version of the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

Rumors that the Xiaomi 12 Ultra will be built on Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ have been circulating for a long time. Overall, in terms of the time frame, they agree with the rumors that Qualcomm is intensifying work on the new SoC and its premiere could take place this quarter. So the announcement date of the Xiaomi 12 Ultra on May 10 seems quite correct. But is it worth rejoicing as the Xiaomi 12 Ultra is only a month away from the announcement? The fact is that, according to various sources, the novelty may be exclusive to China, as well as the Mi 11 Ultra. Source
