It seems that a lot of people forget that a sensor can only capture the light that goes through the lens. There are multiple(!) phones that capture more light per time than the Nokia 808 or Panasonic Cm1, which even don't have OIS.
I think that the misunderstanding exists because people think that f-number describes the size of the aperture, but that's wrong. Two f/2 lenses can have a totally different aperture. The effective aperture diameter is focal length / f-number. The larger the diameter, the more light per time per angle.

The advantage of a large sensor is less noise in perfect(!) light conditions because in perfect light conditions the f number gets irrelevant as you need to chose a shorter exposure time in order to prevent overexposure.
Another advantage is that large sensor + high f number could possibly have a sharper lens than small sensor + low f-number.

    Rkm, 29 Mar 2021What is the aperture of main camera? The main camera has an f-number of 1.95.
    If the main camera has exactly the same lens as the Ultra, then the effective diameter of the aperture is 3.89mm.
    That's the reason why it captures slightly less light per time than the Vivo X60 Pro Plus: approximately 89% as many photons per time as the Vivo X60 Pro Plus main camera (in the center of the frame).

      This phone is a beast. The standout feature is the 5,000 mah silicon oxygen anode battery imo. But everything else is beastly too. Can't believe there's also an Ultra version that tops this.

        i0S.-.Never.-.Again, 29 Mar 2021Lol with that kind of hardware, you call those prices high?... moreActually, my apologies. I posted this on the wrong article by mistake (It was meant for the article on the Mi 11 Ultra). The price is competitive alright but basically the same as competitors. Same as the Oneplus 9 pro for example. Both have their advantages. There are plenty of options at this price point in China so consumers can take their pick.

          i0S.-.Never.-.Again, 29 Mar 2021Lol with that kind of hardware, you call those prices high?... moreYes, the prices are high. €1,199 for the global version. It's competitively priced but yes it is expensive. The camera is the standout piece of hardware. Others are similar to other flagships. Yes, it is expensive. Lol

              Willz, 29 Mar 2021Pretty solid device with nice specs. But what the heck with... moreMy thoughts exactly. I am due for a new phone soon, and while these phones are appealing, the size is crazy and they don't seem to be getting smaller. 6.81"? Yikes! My OP 7T is 6.55" and that's about pushing it.

                Anonymous, 29 Mar 2021You wish Lol it completely destroys s21 and ultra on paper no doubt Xiaomi did a good job

                  Arabas, 29 Mar 2021Hi Everyone, Could someone explain will it come to Europe?... moreUltra for sure. It was a vibe that Pro remains in China, but is just a rumor for now.

                                      Will it launch in India, since there was no mention of the 11 pro in the global launch?
