Even the settings menu smells like apple and not the fruit. If I want an iPhone I'll buy one. If I want an Android, I don't want it to have an OS that reminds me of an iPhone.

          Honor Magic6 Pro and Oppo Find X7 Ultra have 1/1.5" image sensor in their zoom camera, which is impressive considering everyone else is using 1/2.55" or at most 1/2" sensors.

          If "normal" flagship phones (priced at or below $1000 like Galaxy S24/24+, Xiaomi 14, OnePlus 12...) have tiny sensors in their zoom cameras, it's somewhat acceptable. But premium, high-end flagships that cost more or less $1500 shouldn't compromise in their zoom cameras (or any of their cameras, really).

          This is me speaking as someone who enjoys taking photos every now and then. Not having high quality camera zoom camera(s) in my phone is not a problem for me, but it is something I would enjoy using (my current phone doesn't have a zoom camera).

            Maria, 26 Mar 2024Do comparison S24U vs X14U, please, both are over $1000Or the battle of all Ultras: x7 Ultra vs 14 Ultra vs s24 Ultra

                Really bad efficiency on this one. Xiaomi cant optimize Android to save their lives.

                  100x camera comparison between S24 Ultra, Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Pixel 8 Pro (crop from 30x) and Magic6 Pro:

                  The Pixel 8 Pro wins the 100x and 30x comparisons. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra produced a lot of fake detail, for example it altered the shape of the pillars. Here you can see how the church actually looks like:

                              Price for 14 Ultra in Hong Kong is hkd8999 or usd1150 or EU1060. That's for 16gb 512 model with no freebies. It's expensive but cheaper than the 15 pro max or s24u.

                                Anonymous, 26 Mar 2024And what about that 7 year old battery? A 150€ battery replacement will make it feel like It's brand new again.
