Earlier this month the Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leica Edition was certified for sale outside of China under the name Leica Leitzphone, and the new name was then confirmed by a leak a few days later.
Today it’s official. Xiaomi’s Spanish X account has posted the teaser you can see below, which clearly identifies the device as the Leica Leitzphone powered by Xiaomi. It will be unveiled at the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Ultra global launch event taking place in Barcelona, Spain, on February 28 at 2PM local time.
Inspirado en el siglo de luz y sombra de Leica y forjado tras cuatro años de colaboración, el Leica Leitzphone impulsado por Xiaomi lleva la fotografía móvil un paso más allá.
Conéctate al Lanzamiento Xiaomi para presenciar el nacimiento de una nueva leyenda.

The international version is rumored to have some minor changes, losing the two-tone dark colorway we have in favor of a fully black back, and rotating both Leica logos by 90 degrees for some reason.
