Come on Vivo and Oppo, make your Ultra models go global. Xiaomi have been doing it for two years already.

    Vale, 22 Jan 2025As a photographer (I own a Sony a7iii and zv-e10) I bought ... moreDude absolutely this. The camera results are rivaled only by actual dedicated cameras.
    And frankly to respond to some other comments, the quick OS updates, extremely tasteful UI (nice blend of iOS inspiration and OneUI competition feels like a happy balance) the speakers are loud and crisp. The screen is amazing. Charges in like 25 minutes from 0-100. Idk, I'm a nerd and many will call this *the* phone to beat from 2024....

      If this is also a xiaomi generic 6.67" than their should be a 7" Ultra XL also

          No 7 OS upgrades ? What a deal breaker.

          With those ugly unnecessary big circle camera island, this phone gonna sell poorly outside china.

            As a photographer (I own a Sony a7iii and zv-e10) I bought the Xiaomi 14 Ultra to have as a backup camera in case I have nothing on me. The files this phone puts out honestly rivals my professional cameras. It's not even a joke, I couldn't believe when I put RAW photos side by side. Sure a camera has better details when you zoom in far and you can shoot in more challenging conditions, but in medium to good light that phone absolutely crushes it, I can't believe such photos come from a phone and from all 4 cameras (the ultrawide is a bit softer when you zoom in though) so I bet the 15 Ultra already beat every other phone out there camera wise

Keep in mind that Xiaomi saves the vignette correction into the DNG files, so you have to view it in such a software where you can view the real raw image, I downloaded a plugin on windows with what windows photo viewer can display RAW images, but it is such a basic software that it can't show any modification, just the raw image itself. Vignette means that less light hits the edge of the sensor than the middle, so the Samsung Ultras' sensors are evenly lit while Xiaomi Ultras' bigger sensors aren't.

                    NFB-FB, 21 Jan 2025Awaiting for this Xiaomi and the Vivo X200 Ultra ... 🙏 🙏Good news. But Vivo X200 Ultra won't go global. Wish to see Oppo Find X7 Ultra goes global.

                      Cake, 21 Jan 2025How do you suppose it will stack up against the Vivo x200 Pro? Will obviously be better hardware wise. It's an ultra after all. Apart from the new chipset and battery the Vivo x200pro is inferior to the Vivo x100 ultra in terms of hardware. Of course the Xiaomi 15 ultra will be quite a bit more expensive than the Vivo x200 pro too. On paper the cameras seem quite a bit better for the main camera and telephotos. It will also use the 200mp sensor but withhigher optical zoom than the x200 pro and will have an additional 3x sensor. However, Vivo has more experience with optimizing this 200mp sensor so only time will tell if the results will be better or worse. Personally, I'm more looking forward the the Find X8 ultra as I think it will have the most balanced camera setup of the ultras

                        Nick Tegrataker, 21 Jan 2025Xiaomi 15 Ultra will have one of the most powerful camera h... moreNot to mention 2 of sensors will have 14-bit raws with dcg and 1 of them 12-bit with dsg, s25 ultra would get obliterated if 15 ultra would use those capabilities. Oh, and raw_sensor could get you further than raw10.

                          MisterTrueRomance, 21 Jan 2025For the price it might as well not since the S25 Ultra migh... moreXiaomi 15 Ultra will have one of the most powerful camera hardware in any smartphone - Something we know S25 Ultra will be completely deprived of. Call me when Samsung stops using embarrassingly small sensors for their telephoto cameras and forcing users to rely on GCam ports just to get decent-looking photos 🥱

                            MisterTrueRomance, 21 Jan 2025For the price it might as well not since the S25 Ultra migh... moreYeah with 8-bit panel and telephotos that get utterly dwarfed even by lesser models, yet alone other ultras.

                              For the price it might as well not since the S25 Ultra might even cost less.

                                Cake, 21 Jan 2025How do you suppose it will stack up against the Vivo x200 Pro? The stack up will be against the X200 Ultra, not Pro.

                                  This is the revolution not the s25 series..

                                    Cake, 21 Jan 2025How do you suppose it will stack up against the Vivo x200 Pro? Better hardware for sure, we'll see how it actually performs
