    Is the satellite feature functional in the United States for the Xiaomi 14 Ultra Titanium?

      Anonymous, 24 Feb 2024You do not need to use more than iso100 in daytime. Mine ... moreYou need at least a shutter speed of 1/750s to capture a photo of a pet or a kid running around, and unless you're under the direct sunlight you're most likely using higher-than-base ISO at that point. Once you're in the shade you'll be cranking it up to 400-800 depending on the luminosity level, and obviously JN1 would struggle hard in such a situation. Modern phones with type 1/1.33 and larger sensors could handle it fine.

                    Allegedly, the focal length of the periscope camera is 19.4mm (same as 13 Ultra), that's incredible! This means that the effective lens diameter is 7.76mm! Even the 75mm tele has a very large diameter (6.82mm).

                    The larger the effective lens diameter
                    1. the more light is captured per exposure time from a distant object.
                    2. the better the theoretical resolution limit for distant objects (due to diffraction)! Theoretically, 7.76mm lets you zoom 40% more than the S23 Ultra or Pixel 7 Pro, which have 5.55mm and 5.43mm, if there are enough pixels per angle. In other words: Theoretically, it's now possible to get 340mm smartphone cameras with the same quality at pixel level as previous 240mm cameras
                    3. the more background blur at a given field of view

                        One frame will never be equal to the next.
                        Somehow tech media never mentions this.

                        Even old sony Z phones had sports as one of those "recognition scenes".
                        When I used, sometimes shutter could go 1/12000s.

                        Then , crapmi note users (aka I want iphone but cant afford) love to claim sony never does new things.

                            The main sensor is cool and top notch. The sensor sizes of the remaining three rear cameras, however, are so 2017-2018. Just disappointing. Many other contemporary camera phones use a bigger 1/2"-sized sensor for their tele-lenses.

                              'The lens is still technically a dual-aperture 23mm unit, but it's wider at the bright end - switching between f/1.63 and f/4.0 here'

                              The good thing is you can choose between four apertures in the settings. F1.63, F2.0, F2.8, F4.0. You can also choose auto where the software decides for you. If you choose auto the default during daytime and indoors is F2.0 so it will be shooting at F2.0 most of the time apart from night photos. Nice to have 4 aperture choices though.

                                Is this available in India xiomi 14 ultra with kit also.

                                  Tried this out for about 30 minutes today. The main positive I see compared to the Xiaomi 13 ultra and the Xiaomi 14 and 14 pro is that they have added a separate sports mode toggle in the camera following the likes of Honor, Oppo and Vivo. Now the sports mode is more reliable and fires more frequently. For the Xiaomi 14 it is not that reliable as it doesn't fire sometimes when the subjects are not moving fast enough e.g. walking briskly but the Xiaomi 14 ultra fires more frequently. I hope they add this separate mode to the rest of the Xiaomi 14 series but maybe it is being reserved for the ultra. Also the sports mode seems to use a faster shutter speed by default. It would choose 1/700s when the Xiaomi 14 and 14 pro would be choosing 1/500s. The downside was it didn't use HDR in my trial together with the sports mode. For example, in a situation without a moving subject the hdr would fire but it wouldn't fire when there was a moving subject in the scene resulting in the background all being blown out. The in hand feel is improved compared to the 13 ultra and it is more comfortable to hold. A rounded back and the removal of the hump in the middle of the phone were good moves. Still, the inhand feed is not as good as the regular Xiaomi 14 which feels really great in the hand compared to either the pro or ultra model. Personally, think the Xiaomi 14 is almost the perfect size for comfort of daily use. The biggest downside I noticed for the Xiaomi 14 ultra was the screen. At the top it curves around into the frame and when not looking straight on you can notice a big dark border on a white screen background at the top of the screen. This is not there on the 13 ultra as it doesn't curve at the top like the 14 ultra. It is also not noticeable at the bottom of the screen due to the bigger bexel on the bottom compared to the top of the screen but is quite off putting at the top of the screen. Hope one of the Chinese manufacturers can eventually release their top flagships with a flat screen. There is some practical benefit benefit to side curves for swipe gestures but this curve at the top doesn't really have any practical benefit.
