Xiaomi is reportedly preparing to launch a variant of the Xiaomi 18 Ultra powered by the new Xring O3 chipset, expected in December. This model will not have a global release and will be limited to the Chinese market. The Xring O3, code-named 'Lhasa', features significant improvements over its predecessor, the Xring O1. The new chipset includes a redesigned CPU that eliminates the 'big' tier, while boosting clock speeds across the board. The 'prime' cores are expected to exceed 4.0 GHz, while the GPU clock speed will increase by 25% to 1.5 GHz. This move follows Xiaomi's previous introduction of the Xring O1 in the Xiaomi 15S Pro, marking a strategic shift towards greater reliance on in-house chipsets for their devices.
