Leaked Xiaomi 17 Ultra Photography kit renders suggest a triple rear camera setup

Xiaomi’s next flagship, the 17 Ultra, is rumored to arrive earlier than usual, possibly by late December, with a stronger focus on photography. New leaks of a branded "Photography Kit" show the phone using a triple rear camera setup, a change from the Xiaomi 15 Ultra’s four cameras.

The 15 Ultra used two telephoto lenses, but the new leak suggests Xiaomi may drop one of them and reorganize the main camera array instead of simply cutting corners. Full details on focal lengths and sensors are still unclear, but the move points to Xiaomi rethinking its camera hardware rather than chasing higher lens counts.
