Xiaomi’s upcoming flagship, the 15 Ultra, continues its march toward an official launch, with fresh certifications surfacing in China’s FCC and 3C listings. A new report from yesterday already suggested that the global model will pack 16GB of RAM, 512GB of onboard storage, and launch in three color variants. Now, additional details have emerged, shedding light on its connectivity options, software, and an upgraded photography kit.
FCC Certification Confirms Connectivity and Software
The FCC listing officially identifies the Xiaomi 15 Ultra with the model number “25010PN30G” and FCC ID “2AFZZPN30G”. These certifications are a significant step toward the device’s global release.
A closer look at the FCC documentation confirms that the phone will support:
- 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G networks
- Tri-band Wi-Fi for enhanced wireless performance
- Bluetooth (BR, EDR, LE) and NFC
Software-wise, Xiaomi is expected to ship the 15 Ultra with HyperOS 2.0, its latest in-house operating system based on Android 15. This marks an important shift from MIUI, Xiaomi’s long-standing custom interface.
3C Certification Confirms Photography Kit
The 3C certification in China has also revealed a dedicated Photography Kit for the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Last year’s model introduced an attachable camera handle, 67mm filter adapter rings, a lens cover, a lanyard, and even an additional 1,500mAh built-in battery to extend shooting sessions.
It remains to be seen whether Xiaomi will introduce enhancements this year. Given the increasing focus on mobile photography, improvements in grip ergonomics, shutter controls, or even modular accessories could be on the table.
A Growing List of Certifications
Aside from FCC and 3C approvals, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra has already secured certifications from multiple regulatory bodies, hinting at an imminent launch. These include:
- EMVCo – Potentially related to mobile payments
- SDPPI – Certification in Indonesia
- EEC – Approval for the European market
- MIIT – Standard compliance in China
- BIS – Certification in India
