Xiaomi has releases its latest flagship smartphone, and it boasts a camera with excellent video capabilities, plus an incredibly speedy charger.

First of all, there’s the main 108-megapixel camera which the manufacturer has dubbed ‘Cinemagic’. Why? Well, it can record standard 8K video enhanced with HDR10+, and is optimized frame-by-frame by AI computational capabilities so that it can “capture footage that will stun friends and social media followers alike.” This camera is joined by an 8-megapixel 120-degree ultrawide lens, and a 5-megapixel telemacro sensor with 2x zoom.

Another feature which is bound to attract attention is the 120W HyperCharge system, which Xiaomi claims can top up the 5000mAh battery from zero to full in just 17 minutes. Xiaomi is keen to stress that there is no overheating risk from this process, and that the cells will maintain 80% battery health even after 800 charging cycles.

The AMOLED display measures 6.67-inches, and offers a refresh rate of 120Hz and a maximum touch sampling rate of 480Hz, which should make it very responsive when playing mobile games for instance. The resolution is at Full HD+ (that’s 240x1080p) and it has a peak brightness of 1000 nits.

Internally, there’s a top-tier Snapdragon 888 processor which packs an X60 modem for 5G connectivity.

There are two configurations of the device, which will be available to pre-order from 24 September, and available to buy from 1 October:

• The standard 8GB RAM, 128GB storage variant will be priced at £599; it will be subject to an early bird offer of £549 to all those who order it before 26 September.
