Recently, there has been some news that the Xiaomi 12 Ultra will be introduced. We would like to state that these reports are not true. Today we will tell you why Xiaomi 12 Ultra will not be introduced, based on official documents. MIX 5 and MIX 5 Pro will be introduced instead of Xiaomi 12 Ultra. First of all, let’s examine the model number of the newly introduced Xiaomi 12 series and the MIX 5 and MIX 5 Pro, which will be introduced soon.
The model number of the Xiaomi 12 codenamed Zeus is 2201123C. The model number of the Xiaomi 12 Pro codenamed Cupid is 2201122C. The model number of the MIX 5, codenamed Thor, is 2203121C. The model number of the MIX 5 Pro, codenamed Loki, is 2203121AC. Now that we know the model numbers, let’s take a closer look.
Xiaomi 12:22 01 12 3 C
22=2022, 01=January, The important place: 12=L (A,B,C etc.) 3 (L3), C=China
Xiaomi 12 Pro:22 01 12 2 C
22=2022, 01=January, The important place: 12=L (A,B,C etc.) 2 (L2), C=China
Since the Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro are currently being introduced in China, the model number is written with a C at the end. When it will be introduced to the global in the near future, G will be written at the end of the model number instead of C. Now let’s get back to our topic.
MIX 5:22 03 12 1A C
22=2022, 03=March, The important place: 12=L (A,B,C etc.) 1A (L1A), C=China
MIX 5 Pro:22 03 12 1 C
22=2022, 03=March, The important place: 12=L (A,B,C etc.) 1 (L1), C=China
Xiaomi’s high-end flagship devices are licensed with specific numbers. If you noticed, I have a sequence like L3, L2, L1A, L1. It has the numbers Xiaomi 12 L3, Xiaomi 12 Pro L2, MIX 5 L1A, MIX 5 Pro L1. If the Xiaomi 12 Ultra were to be introduced, the Xiaomi 12 Pro would not have received the L2 number. The numbering ending with L1 represents Xiaomi’s premium flagship device.
Already the L2 numbering belonged to the Xiaomi 12 Pro. Since the L1 number also belongs to the MIX 5 Pro, the Xiaomi 12 Ultra is not licensed. It cannot be an unlicensed device and cannot be offered for sale. According to the leaked IMEI information, the MIX 5 series will be the flagship device that Xiaomi will launch exclusively for China in March. We explained everything in detail.
