Like comparing 1/3.5" to 1/2", or 1/2.5" to 1/1.7". Its a big difference in offer.

      Note that this is a 4:3 1" type sensor. So it's slightly larger than typical 1" type sensors.

          Not for me. Even some of my favourite photographers (Steve McCurry, Alan Schaller), using a Leica. Yes there are people buy it just to show off. But the output is dramatic & unique when put in a good use.

          Sentimental, dramatic, built quality, evergreen, big time resale value. Thats my definition about Leica.

            Anonymous, 01 Jul 2022That's unfortunate. What's your opinion on videos?Even though I haven't tested it out as much as I have with still photos, I would say the video recording is very good on iPhone. The exposure is well balanced across all kinds of lighting conditions, but most importantly, it doesn't have an annoying aggressive clarity boost that keeps ruining the stills. Colours are generally slightly oversaturated but greens tend to look muted. Good noise handling in low light, too.

Personally I don't care what this ad is even all about, but I still find your attitude quite an eyesore.

The most important information is that the Xiaomi 12S Ultra will use a 1" camera sensor. It's okay if you simply make an observation that the presentation is technically incorrect, but you seem to be obsessed about a mistake that people don't really care about.

The point is that people understand that 1" is better than 1/1.65". It's like someone made a typo that people understand what he actually means, and you keep criticizing it.

It's not that I bought it to take photos with it, but it's always worth mentioning how the newer generations of iPhones overprocess images in a manner that (I think) is truly unpleasant.

                                  I think Xiaomi is crazy, small screen again? 6.28

                                  Xiaomi 12. 6.28
                                  Xiaomi 12x. 6.28

                                  Why again 6.28 ???

                                  Xiaomi is a smart company, I don't know why it lost its mind this year.

                                  Last year was the best year of Xiaomi company, it made the best phones with very good models at a low price and became the second mobile seller in the world, but this year it is going down a bad path.
