Xiaomi is preparing to release Dolby Vision for the 14 Ultra                                    

The camera performance of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra is set to improve even further, due to the upcoming enhancements. Xiaomi product manager Bao announced that full-focal-length Dolby Vision integration for the flagship phone is complete and awaiting Dolby certification. This improvement will bring Dolby Vision to each of the 14 Ultra's main cameras, establishing a new standard for mobile imaging. The update feature should become available to users around mid-to-late May, provided Dolby certification goes smoothly.

Enhanced Dolby Vision Support for All Camera Lenses

The latest update introduced Dolby Vision support to every main focal length in the Xiaomi 14 Ultra’s camera system.

These lenses include

  • 0.5x ultra-wide lens.
  • 3.2x telephoto lens
  • 5x ultra-telephoto.

When Dolby Vision is active across all focal lengths, users can shoot high-quality HDR video using any lens. The effort to ensure uniform image quality at every focal length demanded significant research and development, which required official Dolby approval.
