"That rotating zoom is only included in the new Leica edition of the phone, which also packs touches like the Leica red dot logo and a textured finish on the phone's sides. The ring can be reprogrammed for exposure or focus if you prefer, and the Leica version has a few custom software touches too, like unique film simulation effects, and physical accessories like a lens cap and branded cleaning cloth."
"Otherwise, the 17 Ultra by Leica is identical to the regular 17 Ultra. It's powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, with up to 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM. The OLED display is big, at 6.9 inches, and so is the silicon-carbon battery, at 6,800mAh. Like all Xiaomi's Ultra phones, its cameras are the real focus."
The Leica edition of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra integrates a manual rotating zoom ring into the camera island and includes Leica branding, textured side finish, and branded accessories.

Camera hardware centers on a 50MP 1-inch-type main sensor, 50MP selfie and ultrawide modules, and a single 200MP periscope telephoto.
