Xiaomi is already developing the next generation of flagship smartphones powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset, the Xiaomi 16 Series. However, this time the series will also have a ‘Pro Max’ model, named Xiaomi 16 Pro Max. The basic difference between the Xiaomi 16 Pro and Pro Max will be in screen size! The 16 Pro will have a 6.3-inch flat screen, whereas the Pro Max will have a 6.8-inch flat screen.
Recently, Digital Chat Station leaked some new camera specifications regarding the Xiaomi 16 Pro Max variant. As per him, the phone will be equipped with a 5x telephoto lens powered by Samsung’s latest ISOCELL GN8 sensor, promising exceptional imaging capabilities across zoom and video performance.
The ISOCELL GN8 is a 1/1.95-inch sensor with a 50MP resolution, offering 0.8μm pixel size. It also supports advanced video capabilities, including 8K video recording at 30 frames per second and 4K recording at a stunning 120FPS.
One of the standout features of the sensor is Super QPD (Quad Phase Detection), which dramatically improves autofocus speed and accuracy. This is especially beneficial in low-light or fast-moving scenes. Combined with the 5x periscope telephoto lens, users can expect crisp, detailed shots even at long distances. Xiaomi 16 Pro Max will feature a triple camera setup of 50MP + 50MP + 50MP. The main camera will be a 1/1.28 inch sensor from SmartSens.
